Once Again Poem by Meron Hailom

I built a strong boat
with an intent
to float
as I imagined and thought.
I did it somehow
with no drown
I float and float and float
until I faced a storm
that took me alone
to a shore
a lonely island
where no one is found;
was beautiful
was my demand
I was healed
but not fulfilled,
I missed my life
I missed my grief
I missed sorrow
I missed a shadow
that follows me wherever I go
and Once again
I begin......
I built a yacht
to take me back
to the place I walked out.
