CLEAR VISION

Time and again
I tell myself
This time around
I shall not cry
This time, I shall
Not anguish over
The unchangeable
In my settled life
But your soft query
Releases the floodgates
Of that walled dam
And the river gushes
And in your unspoken
Words, I hear the spoken,
That settles like a caress
And eases the ache
Patience and hope
Is what you teach me
Asking me to cross the
Bridge, not sink it
And to look at the horizon
With a clear gaze
So that I shall someday
See my dreams dawn, not fade…
