The secret of survival of the human species is credited to its adaptability. The situations we might find ourselves in or the hardships that we may face mold each of us differently but never cease to affect us. Everything that comes our way impacts us and shapes the people that we become eventually. Even a faint glimmer of hope can carry us through miles of our journey. There is always a belief that a better tomorrow awaits us. Someday ...
Someday the lone traveller will embark on a new journey
Leave behind the sorrows of the life that is now long past
Someday the thorns of the road will cease to make him bleed
Soothe the wounded soul the passing time will eventually
heal
Someday the dark night will give way to a fresh new dawn
Its light will drive away from the corners the hidden
despair
Someday the broken heart will be safe and whole again
The cracks in its walls will fill and gradually start to
fade
Someday those forbidden memories wont scare and haunt
Letting go he will no longer seek forgiveness and redemption
Someday the injustice of the world he will learn to forget
Believe again in the good of the world with hope renewed
Someday the tears will dry, nightmares will grow scarce
Friends as guardian angels will wipe all of their traces away
Someday faith in the wisdom of the Gods will be restored
Reason behind all the suffering will make a little sense
Someday the cynic will lose its suspicion and distrust
Risk it all again in the quest to remember what it was like
Someday the traveler will let go, leave it all behind
That will be the day when embracing it all he lives again
That will be the day when embracing it all he lives again
lovely
ReplyDeleteHi Surabhi Srivastava. A very good social networking friend of mine told me about your poem and how good it is. Well my good friend is 100% right because your poem is really very good. My good friend isn't perfect but I tell you what, he is a good man and friend to have. He also cares very much about you too Surabhi Srivastava:)
ReplyDeleteVery Nicely done! HOPE!
ReplyDeleteHope lives in all of us. We just need to share that hope.
ReplyDeleteEmotions beautifully captured ! The lone traveler just has to realise that "that someday" is NOW ! :)
ReplyDeleteThoughtful and inspiring. Just before coming to this post I was reading the status update of a young man who was catastrophically injured two years ago. He couldn't walk, could only travel by ambulance with attendants, and was never expected to walk again. Today, his status is about his quest to get the final doctor's clearance to return to work. Where some people would have given up, he found a glimmer of hope, refused to give into the "reality", and instead forged his own future. The human spirit truly is amazing.. and the capacity to begin again is within us all.
ReplyDeleteLove in our heart is the answer for everything in our world. Love is also our best adviser for misunderstandings and sadness. We should just hear to love and trust us.
