Lifes Journey

She starts off slow,

Cautious of her surroundings

Waiting to make her first move.

She takes in all the information,

In preparation for her first mission.

 

Sounds become familiar...

Tastes... smell... people.

Emotions slowly rise,

Connections are gradually made.

But for now, they stay in the shade.

 

As confidence rises,

She takes her first step

Out into the big world,

Taking a perilous chance

Setting off in a quick prance.

 

Unaware of her destination,

She fights on.

Slowly taking risks,

Eger to find out a little bit more

Ready to disclose secrets of the world’s shore.

 

But soon, she is hit.

Hard and unexpected, she takes a fall.

Losing hope she cries,

cries in pain

cries to explain.

 

She is lifted by unforeseen care.

And finds solace in this shade

She puts her foot out again,

But this time, with her lesson in mind.

She is cautious to leave the fall behind.

 

Nevertheless she is soon to fall,

Falling in pain,

falling in darkness

But again she still remains,

only to repeat again.

 

The cycle never ends till her time is up,

Till she has accomplished he deed.

That is life, ever fall lets you rise again

After every loss you find a gain.

Wipe the tears to fight the pain

 

In the end, everything is clear

You shed one last sincere tear

There is nothing left to fear

People have become dear,

In satisfaction you disappear.

Author's Note

Very rough, is it to long?

That was a beautiful poem. you have captured the essence of life very well. Keep up.

[The Creator's Little Ro..]

It's perfect the length it is. There is a misspelling in the first line "of" should be "off" I do believe. Very nice.
