Snippet# daily prompt # season 4# attempt 29
That shining star
Far very far…
Still shining bright
To give light
To the darkness of my nights
But today
I need more
More than this Snippet
More than this light
I want to rest my head
On it’s shoulder strong and wide
Dear star!
Let me lie
And rely on your
Loving embrace
Don’t stop
If I cry
No I don’t need
Any words of reassurance
Or strength
Just let me place my head
On your chest
To empty my heaviness
Let all that is breaking me
From inside
Flow with floods
Of tears
No I don’t want you to stop me
This time
Accept me
As ‘I’
Just an understanding kiss
On my forehead
Would be enough
All I wish
Is to slip
In long peaceful sleep
Placing my head
On these strong shoulders
Using them as my cushion
To open my eyes
At the other end of the sky
See how tired I am!
Fighting all my fights
Now is the time
To have some eternal rest
Let’s meet again
In another lifetime
Only if I could afford this sleep
But we know
You and I
That this journey
Will not end here and
With my tired steps
I still have to walk
Miles n miles…
Without taking rest
Without surrendering
Do you think
I could?
Dear star
Just like your shine?

Yes you can
You are strong and determined enough to last till the finish line and then you can rest for as long as you wish.

Sometimes while commenting on your posts I realise that, my comment is exactly what I would like to tell or remind myself too.

Sometimes people and situations around us deplete our energy then as if like some reminder or help HE reminds us no you are not suppose to give up. You are a fighter, wake up and keep going. I too find answers in your posts so many times.
