Solicitude

The answers I could not find
Not even in the wind that passes by
And the stream remains silent
I still have to wait and try
As my eyes scan the sky
Hoping to see a spot or two
To my dismay, it's nothing but the blue 
My heart suddenly goes dry
The answers I could not find
Not even in the wind that passes by
or have you gone with it or are you near-by?
Even like a speck of dust 
in the vastness of uncertainty
The answers I have yet to find

    1. Oh, how lovely your words are, Marie! Things don't always come as expected. Many times, we'll feel so disappointed but that's the way of life.

      Thank you for stopping by. It's always a pleasure to see you.

      You take care, too. :)

  4. The mind plays around with lots of unanswered questions when one is alone. Very familiar take Balqis!
