Tsunami

Tsunami

A Poem by FlaLover
"

This is one way to describe some relationships

"
magine, if you will, a barren island in the middle of an ocean, surrounded by cold, uncaring water as far as one can see.

Forsaken and isolated, devoid of being loved.

The island was once dynamic and vivacious, enjoying each day, believing she was truly blessed.

Without warning a colossal tsunami ravaged the tiny island.

The tsunami lacked compassion and concern about the unrelenting desolation it caused.

The path of destruction was and still is unimaginable.

Gone are the carefree days filled with sunshine and laughter.

Everything the island cherished was viciously taken.

All that remains is eternal despair.

Imagine, if you will, the island’s overwhelming anguish and loneliness.

Perpetually heartbroken has left her numb all over.

Destined to forever feel empty.

The path of destruction was and still is unimaginable.

Gone are the carefree days filled with sunshine and laughter.

Everything the island cherished was viciously taken.

All that remains is eternal despair.

Imagine, if you will, the island’s overwhelming anguish and loneliness.

Perpetually heartbroken has left her numb all over.

Destined to forever feel empty.

This is a depiction of my life for I am the island and you are the tsunami!

A superb metaphor ...you bring the island to life...in a very sad way....imagine all is going your way in life, then boom, it hits you like bricks,,the pain, the fear, the anger, the hurt, the emptiness one must feel...
"the path of destruction was and still is unimaginable" ...yet when the tsunami passes perhaps there is hope for a new and productive life...no looking back
