Disasterpiece

Disasterpiece

Part II: Now

 

I am melody,
I am silence,
My glances can be sweet,
My walk can be violence.

I am glitter,
I am wounds,
I can taste bitter,
And at times, can soothe.

I am nascent,
I am weary,
Often complacent,
Yet climbing up, up, up…

I can be the shiniest star in the sky,
Or the bottom of the deep black sea,
I can make you ask God why,
You will find no other like me.

I am a masterpiece,
Crafted from bone and blood,
I am a disaster,
Turning structures into mud.

Disasterpiece,
That’s my calling card,
It’s in every one of you,
Remember that when times get hard.

For what is a disaster,
Than starting once again from ground up,
Embrace that new life,
And refill that cup.

    Hmmm… Disasterpiece… that’s a really creative name Meetali. Thank God Part II gives a little hope… but I still can’t help but wonder where these thoughts are stemming from.
