Someday Poem by shona sengupta

Wake up see not the time
It isn't a race against the clock
Dress up but don't ponder on the looks of it
Don't burn bread while packing for the day
Or spill juice thinking of the delay
Because some day……
Don't tire of the terrible hour
Like all else it will be over
Don't hope for the lasting joy of eternity
You blink and it'll pass over
Let the tiff not severe the strongest ties
Nor the strongest ties severe your heart
Because a new beginning follows the end
Grieve for loss don't shatter,
Life goes full circle and in the very end it won't matter
When you move so far ahead that you lose sight of the past,
Don't fear it was meant to happen.
When you can't go back where you started,
Look ahead and let the purpose guide you to the end.
It matters not how you start and where you end,
Whether your goal is reached,
What matters is how you made it there
And what it taught you,
Whether the weight of evolution was burden or built.
Because some day it'll all be over…
And then you won't stop to think
Of the little pieces that made the puzzle,
The little ties that formed the link
It's not about the picture or the pieces that make it
It is about knowing that all of it,
Every smile, tear, hope, sorrow, every moment time takes away,
It'll all be over someday.
