Just like Waves

Like every other poet-ess of my time, I believe that the best expression of my thoughts is through my poetry. So, here is one to talk about my state of mind at the moment.

Just as waves do,
They surge, they ebb.
High and mighty,
Ascending to dizzying heights,
Low, and down below,
Drowning to the sinking abyss.
Such is the journey,
Called Life.
Just like the sand.
A clean slate,
Waiting for the imprints,
Of the myriard laughs you bring.
As your feet dig in,
A memory is sown.
Such is the journey,
Called Life.
Just like the shells,
Scattered about.
Some oyster like,
Holding pearls of happiness within.
Priceless.
Others hollow and empty,
Worthless.
Ensuing one misery,
After the other.
Such is the journey
Called Life.
Just like the Sun,
Sinking for the day into
The black depths of the ocean.
Ascertaining, the value of every ray.
Soon to be extinguished.
With the promise of a come back,
Once again,
Again and again.
Such is the journey,
Called Life.
