One Day I'Ll Get Better Poem by Rani Turton

One Day I'Ll Get Better



One day it will seem as though all these moments
Were bits of dreams;
Dreams that I would rather forget. To look back
Without that regret: without sadness
I'll get better, and the road ahead will flow
Lke a river, a tranquil river that flows
Smoothly from shore to shore;
And my destiny, like a barge
Would sail, under the sea, the sky, the sun.

So often I those feelings would envelope me.
I would wander from land to land.
Foreign seas and mountains would speak to me.
Poetic fantasy or was it really so?

Then I would walk in the rain, numb with chill;
The kind of cold that even a fire could not warm.
To keep me from that terrible approaching harm.

Some tears would fall, it does not matter much.
Life has these moments, ah, many such.
