Emotional Rollercoaster

August 17, 2008 : 15 Shaban 1429 H

Archived under My Poetry .

Nothing could have prepared me
For the ride I was to take
No words could have soothed
For it was a ride
Unexpected

Nothing could have padded my nerves
Made them stronger to withhold
The knocks and jolts
For it was a ride
Unexpected

The upsurge of emotion
Overwhelmed and washed me
Cascading a wave of emotion
Causing such a tremor
Unexpected

It was one bolt after another
An uphill climb
Where was the peak?
For I feared it to be
Unexpected

Just when I thought
Enough was enough
Another would push me further
Those tumbling tears
Unexpected

Onlookers thought me to be unwell
A fever, a death or a divorce
None of such ailed me
But the ride was
Unexpected

Story of one's yearning for Allah
Sight of one so beloved
Marriage of a seedling
That ride was just
Unexpected
