I have walked sad, desolate streets
searching for some answer
Along rubbles and heap of garbage
passing images of disaster
Varied faces of agony and defeat
what more could I muster
I have gone a long, long way
and can’t go any further
Memories of the past keep on haunting
me to fall down on my knees
The scent of decay and rotten flesh
weakens me to every breeze
With the last bit of hope could I go on
driven by a victory to seize
Or shall I finally give up this struggle
to the Game Master as he please
I make my hard, struggled breath
as the clock strikes to the edge
I can see the sky, moon, stars
and my ancestors by the ledge
I am fearlessly ready, on my way
fixing myself to the wedge
To the Supreme Truth that liberates
my soul I kneel down and pledge

Poetry: Life's road
Broken Bricks lay upon a path
Towns once proud knelt to nature’s wrath
Careless time she does not strife;
Causing pain,
by Susan Kmita
Each journey began with a mile
Intricately wound thru the years
Faced mountainous barriers of trial
Swam thru the valley
The Road
The raging river passes before me
and fills my heart with sorrow,
It’s depth and fury blocks
Branched and ever forming the truth my road is not my forlorning.
I take a turn to only have decisions.
Another road

What defines you, reminds you what you were meant to be?
What pre-creation pre-designed you, pre-destined path you were meant
