Rhythm of the night

511

Many times life has a way of playing with us. What seems straightforward can get complicated real quickly and what seems tough can be a simple task.

This is one of the mysteries of life. No one can predict how things will turn out yet all of us believe we are in control of it.

as I swim through a
sea of uncertainty,
my heart sang with joy,
my anguish thoughts gone!

I don’t understand how or why,
at times, I feel like the end is near,
while at times, I feel like
this is just the beginning!

as I feel the warmth of the
breeze upon my face,
the sun gives way to darkness,
illuminating the sky with diamonds aplenty;

if only I had wings I could fly away,
into the night sky, beyond the moon,
far away from the depths of reality,
where life seems like eternity;

feeling useless and so unwanted,
I found myself trapped in life’s grip
lost in chaos and confusion,
nothing seemed to be right;

as faith and hope joined hands
to shield me from the danger
that life threw in my path,
courage lifted me up
and put me back on path;

as I search happiness,
that I have yet known,
the rhythm of the night
gently puts my fears to sleep!
