A Book Is a Life’s Journey ~

She released a deep sigh ..

As a shy light peeked into her room  

She reluctantly closed her bulky book  

She was near the end

The last few pages scared her ..

Short yet eventful are most endings

She knew this

She wanted to carry on

But she didn’t ..

As she laid down on her bed,

She caught a glimpse of the sky

It wasn’t really sad

It was .. uncertain ..

Yes, she thought of the sky as a person !

It was gray with small bluish spots

She marveled at its unsettled color ..

Just like her soul upon those sorrowful pages

Just like her hand that craves yet refuses to turn the page

Fearing the inevitable future of her fictitious dear ones

It suddenly hit her ..

Reading a good book is like going through Life !

The coming episodes terrify you yet lure you

You lay still, you look forward then you waver ..

Moments demand to be lived, fate demands to be noticed  

Demands to be realized ..

As if it is the ultimate Right of the universe

It is then your duty to move on .. to turn the page

A necessary evil if you wish

All your waverings, uncertainties, mishaps and triumphs will lead to an end

Predetermined .. Yet still undefined ..

Regardless, march courageously !
