There are times ,
Sometimes...
when you think all has ended...

A blank path , A dark hole , a lonely hide-out...
Trying to find myself ? Or find out ?
The truth ? Or a secret...
Reveal ? Protect or Forget ?

Running away... death clutching my sides
No... my arms... just my arms
That's all that's left to own !




***

A blinding flash ! A hallow.. A spectrum of colors !
Not just my cold clutches
There's another pair...
another

Fair or Dark ? Human or Angel ?
I tell you...
It was Him.
reaching out...
into the dark hole , the lonely hide-out !
A rescue ? NO came the answer.
It was a new life !

The voice !
A Whisper or Thunder ?
Sharp but Sweet...
Bold but Beautiful...
Loud but Smooth...
The Wind ! Awakening the chimes...

My own Angel ?
No , HE IS THE ROOT...


The author's comments:
This piece is the closest to my heart as I talk about THE ROOT.. which pulls me out of my sad gloomy hide-out and gives me a new life :-).

Every reader can associate to this ROOT in his/her own way.. It's meaning varies from person to person. It helps the person find their own ROOT. A way out of sadness and gloom.

I hope the read was good and helpful :-)
