Battles

There is a tomorrow

It is beyond the breaking point

At the edge of the night

Rising with the sun


Easing like a caterpillar

Crawling across sheer greenery

Dancing like twilight on a pond

Kneeling then rising from a place of prayer

Let truth hover

Akin to mist in the presence of the storm

Strength to enhance broken bones

And balm to ease the pain


A jacket to block out the rain

And hope for the coming days

The fists once covered in naivety

Are now battle tested,

Only trials can teach hard fought lessons



Love always, Ayesha
