It’s almost ironic that this poem is called reflections, because yet again April is ending and so is this challenge. I’ve realized recently how much I’ve loved writing poems daily and I’m hoping to keep doing that and keep posting, because writing is such a joy. I hope you’ve all enjoyed this challenge nearly as much as I have, and please enjoy this last one and the many more to come. I am truly amazed by how much my little blog has grown, so thank you all!
Day 30 – Reflections
The month is ending,
And I sit by a window,
Wondering the same things,
As when it began.
Will it ever stop raining?
Will I not fail statistics?
Will I be able to shave those few more seconds off my 50?
Have I been braver?
Stronger?
Have I learned from my mistakes?
Have I grown?
April ends,
In the same rainstorm that brought it in.
But I breathe and let the water,
Rescue me.
Teach me to face my fear,
Take a breath,
And dive into life.
