Abrupt
A poem
In the blink of an eye,
the world shifts —
a sudden gust,
a sharp intake,
moments fractured,
like glass shattering.
Abrupt.
Unexpected.
Life’s jagged edge
cuts through the mundane,
stirring echoes
of forgotten dreams,
unspoken fears.
In the silence that follows,
a new path emerges,
raw and uncharted,
where endings meet beginnings,
and clarity blooms
from the chaos left behind.
I want to write this because life often unfolds in unexpected ways, with moments of abrupt change that reshape our perspectives and paths. These experiences stir within me a need to explore the raw emotions and profound insights that accompany such pivotal moments.
Through writing, I seek to capture the essence of resilience, transformation, and the human spirit’s capacity to find meaning and direction amidst unpredictability.
It’s a reflection on the resilience of the human spirit and the transformative power of adversity, aiming to evoke empathy, introspection, and hope in those who read it.
