"Sparkle of hope in the midst of a crack"


        

         Sparkle of hope in the midst of a crack
Standing at the edge of the road

I felt my legs tremble beneath me

The road with you was the one i loved to travel always

The road without you was bitter and harsh

But now came a time where both the roads seem to be equally painful

Those waves of the sea once dance around my feet

Now misled me and splashed right at my face

But never did i think that those innocent eyes will lie to me a second time

Dreams and expectations i had none

But a heart full of love i did have

Games I knew none except the ones played on board

So I folded my hands and gazed up

Surrendered myself to the one who created me

There shone a light which have certainly never seen before

It radiated an energy into me i have never felt before

Don’t let him win this game murmured a soft voice

I was able to hold back my tears which i never ever could

A ray of hope i now can forecast

Though everything  that reminded me of you weakened me.

I try to look down and walk¸ trying my best not to shake and fall.

This strong power made me tough

It helped me erase your memories one by one

Though marks were left behind

I’d like to keep these scars as a memory of you

It helped me write this poem and

will always help me to stay away from roses with thorns


This Poem was written for a 'Poem Writing Competition' I participated. The Topic was  "Roses & Thorns".

  Name: Bittu Jacob Owner of Baked for you by Bittu   1. Why did you pursue baking as career?   During my school days I enjoyed baking with my ‘Amma’. After getting married I used to bake occasionally at home and when we had guests at home.   On my son’s 5 th   birthday, I decided to make a fire truck shaped fondant cake. It was my very first attempt baking a fondant cake from scratch. When my family saw the cake they were quite impressed. To be honest the cake tasted lovely but it was not like those very neat fondant cakes . My family encouraged me to level up my skill by attending cake décor classes.       So I attended a class and learned the basics of cake decoration. Even at that point of time I never thought of taking this up professionally. That same year (2016) in the month of December my Appa asked me to bake 10 cakes to gift his friends. I was nervous about this but my Appa had full confidence in me. He convinced...

                                         It was another day at middle school. I still had not made any friends. Well , the truth is I really tried but no one  wanted to be my friend. It was lunch time and I was looking for a place to sit in the cafeteria. This is one thing I dread the most. Everyone had a group of friends of their own. The popular group sat in the corner. They were the cheerleaders, basketball players, kids with good looks (most of them wore makeup so cannot really tell if they were really good looking) and then there were the rich kids who only wore only branded clothes , shoes.  I certainly did not belong there because I didn’t have the skinny body type which those cheerleaders had. Forget sports. I cannot even do ten push-ups straight. I wore clothes which I got on sale from JCpenny and not Ar...
