The maze of life

self reflection on the situation where I stand

The maze of life

 

 

 

Rocked by the waves of emotions and reality,

I follow the rhythm far from conformity.

The cry of my soul overwhelmed by sorrow,

Praying for the hope of a better tomorrow.

 

The journey of life and its sharp end corners,

So often ignored are the foresight warners.

Who, with the wisdom gracefully acquired,

Guide the ones that the One inspired.

 

Some paths are wide…. some are narrow,

In some…  are set up traps in a row.

Resembling a maze fit with diversity,

Crossing paths with beings indulged in adversity.

 

The meaning of love is a foreign dream,

The test of kindness has drowned in a stream.

As for the humble notion of genuine care?

Its essence foolishly outstripped … bare.

Oh! My, this is so breathtakingly beautiful Nassira!
You just have this gift to write so simply about all these complexed things and I simply love your sense of sensitivity...It is just very mature, yet so simple and so so deep and thoughtful.
Loved this piece of writing a lot, Life is indeed a maze and it unfolds itself at its own pace.
"The meaning of love is a foreign dream,
The test of kindness has drowned in a stream." - Its' very rare when we read words so beautiful like this!
Awesome, I will surely add it to my favs!

Nassira, you always write such beautiful poetry, the words devout and sincere, but this I think, is one that truly touches me from inside out.

' Some paths are wide�. some are narrow, / In some� are set up traps in a row. / Resembling a maze fit with diversity, / Crossing paths with beings indulged in adversity.' There is so much truth there in those few words.. their power is gentle and extraorinarily touching.

Thank you so much for sharing.. it's wonderful to see you back here, if only briefly. Take care, dear friend.

OMG Nassira, I think you created here something so unique and special, I stand up on my feet now and just cheer you Bravoooo .... How much pain, how much beautiful way you describe your life, like a long journey , our journey, we all walked with you, we all walking...

I think I can cherish those four lines until my last day ... I have been there, I am there 24 / 7 ... we can laugh and giggle but no one really know what is it when love ends, when your life is really rocked and you feel how you lose faith in anything, you just hope for tomorrow, maybe, just maybe things will be a bit better.... ohhhh if someone find the cure for a broken heart.... Bravooo my friend, Yossi
