Determination

Greta

As i finish the last chatper of the book

The pandemic slips away

I set out to find a different book

With confidence in my soul.

The journey is tough

But inside i handle it with ease

Walking for miles and miles

Over land and sea.

I reach my destination

All my hard work repaid

As the future lies ahead

I wait.

I wait for days and nights

The time coming closer

Hoping that my death will be peaceful

My mind blank.

Waves dancing and trees singing

The giggles of the birds echo

As the time has come

The world slowly fades away into darkness.

A Serene World

By Simone 

I walk into a garden,

though I'm blinded by fear of the past .

a tree branch reaches out ,

beaconing me closer.

A door opens from the trunk.

I enter a room filled with opportunities.

I grab one,

It brings me to a serene world .

A place that is peaceful and jubilant.

I will stay here to live in the future.

My eyes are restored.

Again I am joyful
