The Journey

My first tryst with writing

The Journey 

Beyond the universe, what's hidden behind the sky?

My eyes do reach , but my hands just fly.

 

My innocence shows and I still reach out for them,

but all they think is I may cause mayhem.

 

My past fails to please them , I fail myself and I cry.

My spirit blames the heavens , but the heavens insist on another try.

 

I fear this time , I fear shedding tears,

lost in despair , blind in sorrow ,

I fear the arrival of tomorrow.

 

In this darkness , entered my light

one small spark surprisingly made my life bright.

Here ended my foolishness, here ended my plight ,

once again hope blossomed and I had my seat belt tight

for now, the unjust world smiled at me , made me feel like everything was all right.

My journey began , I dreamt of success and won it too, or I'd rather say-----

 

" I JUST MIGHT ! "

[Onyia-Ali, Kingsley Chu..]

This poem is good. I so much appreciated the arrangement of the diction in decendind order: anti climax. Your end rhyme also struck me. I must confess this poem is good indeed with lot of figurative expressions. Well done.
