“Be soft. Do not let the world make you hard. Do not let pain make you hate. Do not let the bitterness steal your sweetness. Take pride that even though the rest of the world may disagree, you still believe it to be a beautiful place.” -Kurt Vonnegut


I stood, I reached, I hoped
Like the ground whose mountains yearn for salvation from the sea
Like the clouds that flee from their own sweet serenity

I fell ,I bruised , I cried
For solace, for comfort, for joy
For eternity, for peace , for feeling
A star that dust left stories but whose words were left unspoken

I watched, I yearned, I called
But all I heard were my echos
Pitter-pattering with the steady heartbeat that I called
my own
