"A cup of Tea"

"Hope"

It might be crazy to be alone

It might might be selfish to be alone

It might seem, an act of coward

Make no mistake, for you're not responsible

I made the choice not hungover

I'm grateful to you but glad it's over

It gave me time to dig the world.

Alone I swim, across the river

The pain and cold I have to endure

It's worth the fight for what awaits

To find the place, where I belong

Without you there, to hold me back

To tell me that the world is black.

Alone I walk into the dark

And hope alone, becomes my light

I'll walk and wait for time will come

Along with music my heart will beat

Then I will kneel and say the word

But hope is all I have for now.

Few weeks ago, I asked my brother to contribute an article for my blog. Obviously, he is busy with his work life and I cannot keep on pressing him for the article. But fortunately, I came across the above poem in his phone note he wrote from his office. And I really like the poem for it simplicity. A big "THANK YOU" to him for allowing me to post it here. I hope you will love it.

If you like the poem, follow him on twitter at: https://twitter.com/sevanlawrence. You may also like his first book "Break Free: The reflection you have always dreaded" already released on Amazon.in at: http://www.amazon.in/dp/B00QDTZLHO .
