On A Lonely Beach Poem by Akhtar Jawad

On A Lonely Beach

Rating: 3.9


Oh tide of fate!
Do not play with a broken heart,
you wet the sand and I saw a pen of fingers drawing it,
on a lonely beach!

She is too late!
And the tide of time has arrived again,
to erase the write of love
on a lonely beach!

So it's the last date!
The heart will be erased by the waves!
He picked a stone and put it in the heart,
on a lonely beach!

To his surprise the waves stopped,
and the stone was changed in a flower,
he felt a familiar perfume,
on a lonely beach!

When he turned his face to go back,
he found her for a welcoming kiss,
the waves erased the image, no more needed,
on a beach no more lonely!

POET'S NOTES ABOUT THE POEM
An inspiring post of my friend Marie Shine on Facebook, a beautiful picture and words of Hamzi Korme were enough to inspire me to write this poem.
"Don't let your sorrows drown you. Use them to deepen you, humble and soften you. Use them to build your empathy and compassion for the world. Your sorrow was never meant to overtake you; like everything else in life, it is only a tool. To beautify and strengthen you."
