Destiny

Shahla Latifi

 

Destiny is a noun that has been used by my mother

To ensure the depths of life’s uncertainties 

 

Destiny is an utterly indulgent word

To escape from reality

 

If a bird breaks her wing

On the shoulder of a windowsill 

 

If the sun wants to sleep all day soundlessly 

 

If a garden is drying

And no one could hear the melody of her awakening soul

When I dance carefree with the temptation of love coming upon me

 

My mother

Would connect every Unenthusiastic yet satisfactory moment 

To that unclear fact of life

The destiny

    Indeed... Destiny awaits with its uncertainties, but sure we must move toward it regardless. Very poetic!

      I dislike the fault in our stars.
      Thank you for the nice input.
