a hand out of sea
Nature, poetry

Oh! Destiny

Oh ! destiny I’ve

been hit hard by

waves of rejection

A grain of sand

I know my worth,

I’ve been shown

seashore too many

times…

Oh! Destiny tell me

it is not a Sisyphean

fate!

What I sought

I never got!

The mighty Gods

conspired cornered me to

the coast, I cried

pellucid tears

deliquesced

into salt sea-waters

solitary with the

dry wells and the 

ruddy coasts!

Oh! Destiny, I

desire a drop

of those crystalline

waters that I can call

my own!
