Trust Changed It All

Adrift in the wide

Without an anchor

In a meaningless survival,

The lost me,

Ever so hesitating,

Hiding in a world away

From that illuminated

By fiery Sun,

Ever so ablaze.

Drowning

In my own loneliness,

Asking questions and then,

Answering myself,

Not knowing which one was right

And what went wrong.

Till that day of spring

When an array of coincidences

Propelled her at me.

A stranger as she was,

She brought me out in the sun

To see the myriad colours

Of a meaningful expanse.

And the silence in me

Broke like a reservoir

And we in that deluge

Of the river of trust

Became one,

Merging in the sea

Of eternal love.
