OLD MAIDEN

I was playing around with words when my lightbulb sprang into life today, I am not sure where this came from as this spurt of inspiration came when I was busy invigilating for Monthly Test 3 over at Labuan International School... Whoever reads this, enjoy.

OLD MAIDEN

Just there over that ocean,

way beyond that horizontal line,

that's where I should have gone.

Gone with him who once was mine.

Had only I honestly spoken,

Loneliness would never be a stain,

Had only I earnestly listened,

To him who was there in pain.

Now suddenly, everything seemed dim.

A future so silently forgone.

Swallowed in regret, so firm,

Asking, "Will I be forever alone?"

The beginner's beginning...

"Aspiring to be inspired by what we take for granted everyday..."

I am new at this and I hope that one of these days, I will not feel the awkwardness of beginning something I never do before.

Be patient with my stumbles... Thank you.
