Just A Single Wish
Just a single ray of hope
In the darkness of the heart
Trying to discover the light
Emits from a hidden art .
Just a small flower freshly plucked
Its fragrance lingering sweet
With thorns
cut and petals soft
I wrap it with a plain white sheet.
Just a letter written in moments
Of truths , eyes downcast
Unspoken words I suppress
.
My decision made at last .
Just a humble prayer of mine
When on my knees I bend
I pray with
many fervent a line
My mistakes I make amend .
Just a single wish to confess
Spoken in a silent whisper
My devotion a strong fortress
My prayers you will remember .
Agatha Lai
