This Uncomplicated Life of MineImage came from:http://island11.files.wordpress.com It is a common notion that a woman will not be complete without a mate. Hence, a single woman approaching her mid life is usually faced with pressure from friends and family to go ahead and get her man. It is as if her life is at doom if she choose otherwise. In a way, it is true that a man and a family life completes a woman. After all, we are conditioned on that line of thinking. But then, however true this may seem, being a complete woman does not necessarily mean having a mate alone. Being complete and contented all boils down to being in touch with our inner selves. It is being a peace with our selves, be it a woman or a man for that matter.I wrote this poem and hope that you like it.As the shade and warmth of the tree from the distance invites me, I can not help but to feel a certain tingle in my heart. I felt that song in my heart. As the seduction of solitude enfolds..I closed my eyes with sheer emotionMy every being settled in joyous warmthAs I am welcomed by bracing embraceAs the gust of wind touches my skinA quivering sensation awaken my every sensesAs I gaze to the marvel of the clouds above..I felt my heart singing a melodic hymnMy lips utter no lyricsMy mind composes no song..But my every being sings a song..A song sang deep within this soulLo, nothing so extraordinary..Not even a shed of romance comes to meNo earthly fortune to humor meLo, nothing so extraordinaryMy life is but so simpleAs a song goes, it is but a plain white paperSo white with no ink of complicationSo dull with no color of adventureMy life has been but full of trials.In fact, had not been kind at allPeople are not always tameAnd fortune seemed to be so afar.However my life came to beThe rhythm in my heart is realAnd I could not find any answerBut one and one alone...I lived my life with no complicationTried so damn hard not to trample on anyone..I can dare look at any ones eyesAnd with pride, could dare say "I owe you no debt whatsoever"And I know deep insideThat if ever I leave this life of mineI lived and fought that good fightIn this simple and uncomplicated life of mine.I wrote this poem February, 2011 during my birthday. My son told me that this is my day. As I am not getting any younger i tried to look back and check how I lead my life. After which, i was able to construct this poem.Have a great day, my reader. I hope you like my poem.
