The Hope Undying
Long lost for hope,
she felt unhinged.
Cries all-over,
the savior was losing.
Wait for that hint
was unending,
The universe too
was undependable.
Lot of suns had
set;
So did those
moons,
Yet the stone
remained unturned.
But the faith wavered
never.
The gaze stuck,
at that horizon,
Those barren rays
of sun
And vacuous
shimmer of moon.
The dollop of
hope, never served.
Yet the time had
no mercy,
That shiny countenance
Rested her head. Petrified.
The mildews out-grown.
Just when it was
serene
Something
simpered.
Threadbare, she was.
If only
She had time, she
lamented.
A lot to take in. Like how you wrestle to bring it together.
ReplyDeleteBecause if we just bring everything together, we are set to move on ! I think that is what matters at the end ... Thanks for reading LaTonya :)
DeleteDittos to LaTonya. Layers of mystery yet to be unwrapped.
ReplyDeleteI believe this could be applied to any situation of pessimism, situations where you are trying to cross the river holding a thread ... Thanks for stopping by Kathleen :)
DeleteThis is very deep and layered. Feels like fear to start something new. Time passes quickly when we are frozen to act. I like the writing. Just peeked at the title again and that opens a new meaning. Hard to reach it sometimes. Tough place for anyone to be, as you noted. Great write!
ReplyDeleteThanks Maggie ... Yea, I didn't realize it had another connotation to it... " Feels like fear to start something new. Time passes quickly when we are frozen to act"... Sometimes we havre all the means otherwise but the only thing lacking is "us", may be we are very tired or just very scared. So glad you liked it !
