On a windy night
In the middle of summer
The light showers
Soaked me skin down
♥
Walking down the street
With all but myself
The darkness invited me
Welcomed me as its own
♥
Uncertainty followed me
Fear shadowed my silhouette
Towering over my conscience
Questioned all I’d done
♥
When I was certain
Confidence thwarted me
Now scared and doubtful
Courage keeps me company
♥
A reluctant heart
Knows no fame, Identifies no glory
Baby steps to nascent dreams
Fountainhead of perfect bliss

When i started the poem, I got curious on how you would relate it to the title. The middle took a little curve and the way it ended was perfect. Nice one. 🙂
Happy Anniversary ! 5 years is yayy!:-)

Thank you, Prakash.
I can’t say I was certain I’d end it that way. It had turned out differently in my head. I guess, in the end, we don’t get to decide what we write, but the writing decides it.
You’re around here after long. Hope you’ve been well.
