Embrace Poem by Sonya Florentino

Embrace

Rating: 5.0


I embrace the fear
For soon I'll leave them here
I embrace the doubts
For soon all will be clear
I embrace the night
For soon it will be day
Again
As always

I embrace the dark
For soon there will be light
I embrace the void
For soon there will be love
I embrace the pain
For soon I will be saved
Again,
As always

I embrace the now
For soon it will be gone
I embrace the past
And all that's yet to come
I embrace this life
For soon I'll embrace death
And embrace it fully
With my last breath

Oh Sonya; even speaking of death, this poem breathes itself so full of life. This is my favorite style from you; you are the undisputed master of it. Sara Teasdale: time to move aside.. (smile)
