The Finish LineA Poem by Maryam MottahedehThe Finish Line I lost my friend Just now The lake I was in Just dried Here all alone again It just ended It was, sort of limping along Looking the other way I took the joy Now it ended No more rain I pray it not be a drought Let those inspirations Rain again With a man this time
Nothing is to be taken for granted Our time together Our moments shared The joys and laughter All in unison Except our motivation Except our direction There is no perhaps
I lost my friend She lost more than that Let me not lose my esteem than I deserve better than that For a friendship true to its path The glue more than infatuations masked Though I knew Only a matter of time Before the drought Before the finish line
We have arrive And now are parted Blessings with you May your world be kind © 2013 Maryam Mottahedeh |
