Glow as You Row


On rocks made of broken dreams; 
And bars of want for ore; 
Lies my world! 
I built my temple of contradictions;
Camped deep in my core; 
Right where monks are clothed with bitterness!
A place where mere coincidence isn't given a bow and arrow; 
A place where relativity is placed next to appreciated qualities;
Where pilgrims offer sweet nothings with each bow
;Even though there isn't any specter;
Where it isn't plagued with cold or snow; 
And where each can contemplate with sense;
A place where to feel good means to let go;
So as to let the heart reside where it wishes.
Only there can I feel serenity this deep! 
I've finally figured my lines.
Soon I'll be leaving to see what destiny has to bestow; 
And on stepping stones that I've chose;
I shall learn when to step down and when to draw!
For snow is deemed fragile even at a glance;
If you make the right blow.
Sounds like a trance I know but am willing to take a chance;
For one shall glow if he/she perseveres as they row.
Lay back if you will, am going ahead!

Poetry is a form of passionate expression kindled by an impression unbound by public conviction. I write mainly from two genres : impressionism and symbolism. Choose me or leave me, I'm not a backup plan and definitely not a second choice! Not everyone likes me but then again not everyone matters. What matters is peace and the feeling of being content. Every person is a book, this is just the place to share some pages from my book. Peace!
