Grieve Not

You bemoan; Dry dust rises behind you as you walk The ground lies parched like fossilized thoughts The Earth has become a panting sterile desert But know, rain shall soon drench the cracked lands And dormant seeds shall once again sprout So grieve not! You complain; Every tree has shed its leaves The tall grass has withered around the lakes Chill blast blows and mist slowly settles and solidifies But the flakes of snow shall melt And spring shall come with the carnival of colors So grieve not! You worry; Your hopes disintegrate in time Fear, like a militant, silences every sound Sorrow ploughs ravines on your face But the phoenix shall triumphantly rise From the pile of ashen dreams So grieve not! You fear; Your heart might shatter into a thousand shards The capillaries under the skin may burst spilling blood Upheavals may rise and rock your skies But believe the storm shall soon subside And calm will break So grieve not! You visualize; Silence growing ominous around you Everything getting mired in confusion Darkness spreading as a shroud But be hopeful, the sun shall soon rise Filling the Earth with cheer and light So grieve not! And be doubly assured; The rain shall drench the parched lands The phoenix shall resurrect from the ashes The snowflakes will melt and spring shall come The storm will subside and calm will break The sun shall rise, illumining the Earth with light
