I Stand Here

I Stand Here

A reflection of the mind, some years ago. While the poem was originally written and published on Sept 13, 2008, it still stands true on certain counts. The page has been updated on March 15, 2021.

walking along the moonlit beach, thinking of reasons aplenty beneath the twinkling stars, dancing to the waves of melodies;
traveling in two different directions, we came together at an unexpected stop; as the silence of the night, became unbearable, it was meant to be;
left speechless, without any inspiration searching the shoreline and the waves for a reason, that I must have missed to kill this silence and enjoy the moment;
salt watered eyes soak falling into poetic blindness my heart plays a tune I cannot verbalize the mouth runs dry at the thought of singing
dreams haunt my sleep with traces of a past I never lived walking blindly towards a mirage of everything desired by my heart;
in silence, I stand here questions running through my mind, with the truth I cannot deny anymore, as the moon weaves a ring of hope in the darkened sky, I stand here cherishing the moments, as I embrace a new day!
