Subject: The beauty of growth.
I stare towards the distance
of thousands of vehicles
passing by on a highway;
there I can see the
resemblance of my life.
The different junctures
I’ve undergone have
all been as quick as
an asteroid falling from
outer space.
Each gap was filled with
trial and despair that
I will constantly bring
with me as my body
grows fragile & frail.
Most parts of it had given me
a moment where
I deeply reflected and realized
many things in myself
I could not grasp.
One thing I have retained
in my core since then
is to never really
take something
for granted.
I have sought my whole life
for silver linings in every facet
I view, just to feel
something that holds
dear to me.
But I learned to bear it in a
gradual way, for it plants
a seed in our gardens, nurturing
the gaping growth of each person
I become with every rebirth.
