Wandering heart

O′ my wandering heart
my lone wolf
the lone survivor
chasing the will o′ wisp
my heart
my soul wanders
lost the identity
in this grind
I’m no atheist, no believer
a mystery to mankind

O′ my wandering heart
without a home
walking on the
shattered dreams
pierced and bled
a million times
yet I long a warm embrace
a guiding light
which leads me home
a puzzle,
too sublime

O′ my wandering heart
a lone wolf
the sole survivor
looking for the elixir
in those tears
which heals
my battered soul
and resurrect me
a thousand times

O′ my wandering heart
my lone wolf
the lone survivor
my hope tethered
to that sliver of light
on the horizon
to which I’m running
blind

O′ my wandering heart
my lone wolf
the sole survivor
living like a stoic
like a deer lost in the words
running  towards the musk
hidden inside him
a mystery undefined.

I’m a mother of a smart and energetic seven-year-old. I started expressing myself creatively since the last two years. Since then I have been continuously inspired by events in my life and around me which has helped me in penning my thoughts. I’m an avid reader, loves to sing, an ardent lover of poetry and sometimes can scribble few lines too. Loves to dance in the rain, have an undying love for nature, can watch the beautiful sunset for hours. Love to kiss and hug my loved ones. I have worked in the IT field for almost a decade as a manager, worked crazy hours and traveled around the world. In that busy schedule, I never got the time to creatively express my thoughts. Now every time I finish a poem, free verse anything it fills me with so much happiness and excitement and a feeling to have created something of my own. I’m planning to post at least one creation of mine weekly. Lastly, a million thanks to all who visit, like or follow my tiny bits of creation. Every time you do that, I get to know one more beautiful person in my life and get the chance to see their creation too.

  13. Some of us are lucky to find a home for our hearts. Others, not so much, so we keep looking. You’ve written this well.
