Hazia’s Reflections

I used to be a poet during my schooldays. No, I haven’t written a poem ever since I was 15. Anyway, just recently, someone who meant a lot to me requested for an unusual present for his birthday…yes, a poem! That got me started, before I knew it, that long burried creative juices came pouring out, heheh…Here goes…

The Tale of a Traveler

We are all travelers in this big globe of life

At times you bump into other travelers

Some add colours and spices to your journey

Maybe you ‘click’ and then continue sailing together

Others stop for a while to greet you

Touch your heart without realising it

Sometimes their gestures are too dearly

You enjoy their company while it lasts

And find yourself missing them after that

Hoping that your paths would cross again

And the encounters would be different somehow

Wishing that they are more than just passing by

Nothing beats the special moments when you meet that someone

And you want to stay longer

You pray that he would stay with you

At least for a while

Heaven if he does…

But then he may already have another passenger with him

You say goodbye

Pack your bags

And continue your journey alone with a broken heart

Hoping that the pain would fade away

When you reach the next destination

That’s the tale of a traveler

My fellow travelers, buckle up and enjoy your rides!
