Droplets within



never thought I’d be able
I never thought you’d save
Give me Hope

It’s the melting candle
Rolling down slowly
Fading into nothingness
Flames slowly going out
Forming into pure darkness

It’s a narrow corridor
Filled with thousands
But all you hear is silence
Lost within

Blinding sun , feeling like
Forever nightfall
Raining , stormy
Grey thick clouds of sadness

You ,
Your spirit glowing
Turning clouds into gates
Opening into heaven

You,
Giving wind to wings
Of the pigeon , with a note
Where lights bright , boldly
with a glimpse.

Not hope
But WILL and strength.
Mighty enough
Pure enough
And just enough
To hold onto the pureness of
Raw Happiness within


Because that very message
Was more than
Needed .

As I was on my knees
Weakened
Begging shamelessly
To those who blinded me
Who had constant doubts.

Now I see…
Thankfully , saving me
From within .
Pure , selfless &
Beautiful wrinkly hands
Uplifting just in time

But knowing …. Painfully

The flutters of your eyes
Will close
The air within will run out.
The rose will finally fall
being the true saving
Of me .
