Notes About The Poem

POEM: Of crushing expectations & renewing hope.

The Other Side




The Other Side

The day looms tall 
Crushing the hopes 
of every budding reed
with ruinous strikes 
of harrowing memories 
raiding the mind
See the broken rubbles
of shattered Dauntless desires
dancing with the blustering wind
bestowing bleakness 
stirring endless expectations
