Endings-

Endings-

IMG_0536

My breaking was my becoming,
But i didnt know it then;
Built an ocean from my tears
Watched its waves rise up and crash,

I Stood at the shore and wandered
Of the nothings i have left,
While the ocean i had built up,
Watched me break torrentially.

I thought that I had nothing
But here’s an ocean calling me,
I could sail to all the everythings,
I’ve always wanted to see.

But the thing I learnt of sorrow
Is It never lets you see,
That endings aren’t doors closing,
Sometimes endings are the keys.

  1. Ameena, this poem is so sensitive ending with a positive truth.
    I also like ” I could sail to all the everythings,
    Iā€™ve always wanted to see.”
    How beautifully expressed.
