Like A Troubled Sea (Poem 522)
Like a troubled sea,
My trouble never leave me.
As the water rising on the top,
So my rage I find so hard to stop.
The memories of the past,
Keep hunting me till I curse it at last;
Like a waves keep slapping on the rock,
As the high tide rises on the top.
But now I have different view,
In which before I didn't have a clue.
Those painful trials and haunted past,
It's preparing me to meet for life's bigger task.
Never again I would dwell in negative past,
they are just one of the hurdles I must pass.
Now I look at the noisy waving sea in positive way,
As it sometimes dances gracefully as it sway,
and sometimes dances roughly full of glee.
Hope you enjoy thank you for reading:)
