Upon a Raft.........

Upon a raft, sailing the oceans sat a girl all alone

Thinking deeply and musing on the days of her life.

The days when she was happy,

The days when she was sad,

Thinking......Thinking.........

And finally knowing that her time was drawing near.

And as she thought she realised how dear her life really was,

But deep down she knew that she had lived her life to the fullest.

She had faced all difficulties and embraced all joy 

And now as the time neared she fell into a peaceful sleep 

With a smile upon her face. 

Can't Believe I have a Blog!!!

Up until now, when I actually tried to make my own blog, I had no idea how difficult it was to find a good name!
I must have stared at my screen for so long, I bet it seemed like I was having a staring contest to see who's going to blink first.
After, a lot of debating with myself and a few trusted others who know I have passion for writing, I finally decided to just go ahead and put my words out there.

So here goes nothing.........my very first real poem to get published........................

                                           TRUST

You open your eyes to a life and that's where it all begins,

Family, friends, teachers you get to know all of them.

They stand by you always & help & guide your way.

This is how it all starts and as relationships are being formed,

There comes a sense of trust.

Sometimes it takes time while sometimes just a moment.

But however long it takes you know the 'trust' is there always.

You're sure these people will keep your faith, 

Stand by you forever,

So when this hope and trust you gave is broken,

That's not the only thing that is.

Your bonds and faith are shattered as well.

Cause you'll feel like you lost a part of yourself;

That the one you wished would help you here, 

Is the one who put you in this place.

Days go by and you may forgive the one who hurt you so,

But that what once you had with them is gone and lost forever.
