Then I Finally... Poem by Winston Soldevilla

Then I Finally...



For so many years, years of shedding great tears,
tears of blood in my heart.
For so many questions asked, Asked “Where shall I knock? ”
Knocked “where shall I be open? ”
Opened and answered,
As to how to stop shedding tears, tears of blood in my heart.
Then, when all's said and done, I found you in a distant place.

Passing hundred pathways, across rivers, oceans, and seas,
I flew with the wind.
I saw you at a low ebb in an islet, So pure and innocent.
Fain! Waiting for someone.
Then, I clasp with the wind to reach you.
And to the end of the line I found myself
Sitting beside you
in that rocky and strange place.
I dug down into your wholeness,
Scanning blood in your veins and arteries.
Then, I finally found out that you and I were akin.
