Standing All Alone
A Never Give-Up Poem
How can I breathe?
They took my leaves, the tree said
I am the last tree standing alone
Seasons change
People change, the universe replied
Flowers will bloom again
Embrace whatever comes
Even this storm
The road may be foggy
Walk through your heart
Explore the depths of your being
Where the blueprint of the cosmos
Lies concealed but rarely shown
The sky is full of stars
Yet some of them fall
But the starry blanket keeps shining
For it knows
What the dreamy eyes adorn
With love,
You walk on the moon
Because of love,
You become someone’s moon
Stand your ground
Even if it means
You are standing alone
You must remember
At some point in life
Everyone on this path gets to
The other side on their own
