One more TIME...

she saw opportunity 
when others saw nothing
for her the impossible 
didn't exist
she took the risks 
she survived the falls
an epitome of verve
encapsulated it all
till...
an extended phase of darkness
engulfed her for so long
she was distraught
she was torn
embracing solitude 
she withdrew her wings
stoned into numbness
standing still
till...
one fine night
when she was communing 
she realized that not all was over
that there was something inside her
that held her fragile self
from disintegrating altogether

she decided to give-in her all
one more time
she wanted to face life 
with tough resolve
one last time
as if on cue
her spirit soared
she felt hopeful once more
softly, she whispered
Oh! Universe, please conspire
help me tide this over...

Numbness

in the depth of besieged unusual silence
all she was aware was of her "existence"
that she was alive, that she was breathin'
when everythin' around her was collapsin'

all she saw was an endless tunnel ahead
with perpetual blackness widespread
undesired, was such a soulless journey
that made her life rampant with drudgery

her mind over time had turned out to be stoic
akin to her once carefree life that was now rustic
her lovin' heart had become unyieldingly cold
for her endurance had reached its set threshold

she seemed to be overpowered n' engulfed
with a strange profound feelin' of numbness
such sinewy, gritty n' scary was it's grasp
that she let it crush n' shatter her from inside

will she thwart this peril that's breakin' her apart?
will she let her emotions gain ingress into her heart?
will this eerie numbness destroy her pristine soul?
will she bounce back once more to be her spirited whole?
