It’s like a story of unreached hands..
T’was just a hand, so frail, and weak
So lame and pale, it couldn’t even speak
Not a ray of light in a heart so bleak
Nor a sound of hope to give it a lift
Alone and sad, it felt a chance
A chance to hold and cling for your hand
As the fingers grasped for something behind
Just to get near you in your saving arm
With strength and might, it finally found
An opportunity to move and reach for your hand
Not long after it felt a wish so warm
Yet to such dismay, you shoved away thy chance
On the bottom of nothing, the hand laid in silence
Bewildered and lost was the time to regain
The words of conviction, the laughter that was mean
A mock on a strayed soul, a smileful of pretense.
One could not decipher, one could not believe
Why on an injury, an insult was added
Just a chicken aid to an eagle full of power
An ant-like request on a majestic tower
Our world is such strange it goes on revolving
Moving up and or down our life’s in a cycling
The senseless life now, ma turn to an awakening
At the end of the line, yours could be the one searching.
