fate

she woke up intermittently in the middle of the night
nights of terrors
her tiny hands flooded with tears
fear had conquered, overwhelmed her fragile soul
like one of the days in those leap years
she found herself tangled in the weaving web of thoughts
from there she had struggled and fought
from there she had been inflicted with unforgettable wounds

outside, the rain was pouring and extremely harsh
claps of thunders distantly crashed
rumbling like an irascible roar that came from the ancient grave
once had yielded to its darkened fate
once had thought to be eternally rested
but then, provokingly resurrected
from the deepest depth wailed
striking at her very vulnerable heart - never failed (!)
scar after scar – one by one she kissed
spinning in the realm of despairs
her agonizing screams were never been heard
just extinguished in the thin air

she cried but tears unshed
dry-crested like morning dew
laid under the sun with eroded passion
and vanished (!) - forever, those years of innocence
from that moment on, she knew
tough and firmed she ought to be
challenged and embraced the rough journey
however it will be .. take heart, dear soul
and be strong as always - accepted fate
with no regrets, no fears
proudly marching about the darkened path
despite of the devastated feelings
that tainted her sweet and innocent soul
with a chosen mist-blur destiny -- the uncertainty (?)

once in the mire, hopelessly, it waited to set free

waterspout splashed out the reflection
me (!) - i reached out for the retained vision
quivering in the dark with a confused mind
my heart cried silently throughout these restless nights
the portentous nights of dream within dream ...
