Just Like That

Locked in her tower, Rapunzel is waiting
for the face she has dreamt forever,
far among the clouds, sky lanterns are floating,
as she is smiling at the unknown intruder


“This can’t be true”, she keeps telling herself,
Why his soul seems to be familiar?
From behind closed doors, he is smiling at her,
A stranger whom she has known forever.


A mystery, she is trying to put together,
It is beyond the edge of all that is known,
Across all chasms and craters,
He has appeared on her horizon.


poem, poetry, lireshelf


The reply of all her unanswered questions,
Solution of the riddle that is unsolved from eons,
Like a fairytale she had once read
He came to fulfil the wishes she made upon dandelions.


She looks at him and found her home,
The world of birds and butterflies, where she belongs.
After waiting for eternity, she finally heard his footsteps
& she marched ahead, for now on, she will never be alone.


The silence between her heartbeats
Is now filled with the image she had forgotten,
On a paper, she started sketching her favorite face,
And just like that, a poem was written.

Teach me to be the sea vast, limitless, yet Pacific where I work for others and be a pillar of modesty. Teach me to be the sun even though far away, still warm and bright helping myself by helping others emblazing them with light. Teach me to be a flower bright, colorful, cheering everyone enjoying being the reason of smiles not caring for anything in return. Teach me to be a tree that is firm on the ground and brings fruits and shade let my nature be the shade and morals the root no one has to ask twice, wouldn't that be great? Teach me to be a house a comfort zone, a Serene place make my heart so gentle and big everybody gets their space. Teach me to be the wind so gentle, a symbol of coolness no one has to ask for more no one gets no less.                                          ...
