The Unfinished Chapter - 82

Chapter 82

The slight, solitary figure stood at the edge of the ocean
Waves came and went, kissing her delicate ankles ever so often
She strolled along for a little while
And then, she drew circles in the sand
Small insignificant ones that were wiped out with each wave
She watched, she wondered
Were these waves ending when they kissed the shore?
Or, was it the beginning of a new life as they returned?
The occasional seagull looked at her
Her eyes sparkled
They disguised the pain her heart now experienced

Love has wings
Her life will forever be love, even now
Every time she thinks of the abuse of love, her shattered heart, battered soul experience a loss so deep, a pain so brutal... she closes her eyes, her pain numbs her
And, if this pain and missing is what love has blessed her with, she accepts, gladly
She releases her love to the universe
She watched it fly, fly away
Her life
And yet, her heart was beating with one emotion... love
She walks, she walks...

The Unfinished Chapter - 95

Chapter 95

The quiet of midnight rolled on nigh
A solitary star twinkled in the night sky
Her delicate wings found a flicker of life
She was weary
She twirled a slim finger around a strand of smooth, silky hair
Cotton like clouds danced to a tune so strange, so unknown
She looked at the face of the full moon
A moon promising so many dreams
Fulfilling them for some, shattering them for others
She watched, insentient, benumbed
A muffled sob defeated her throat, and made its way out
The murkiness of the night sky emphasised the quiet summer moon
Ah, moon, ever so lonely as that lone star disappeared
Beautiful crescent, hearkening ever so silently
It was bearing witness to dreams being made, dreams being broken
It shone, on the fragments that once were someone's dream
A dream that now lay pulverised, dissipated
Indeed, that moon shone, on all that was, all that is still to be
She closed her eyes
A slow, reticent tear crawled nonchalantly down her smooth, porcelain cheek
She felt it wet her bosom, its final resting place
As she mourned the dreams that evaded her still
