There was no magic,
It was just a tragic,
Stumbled over a hurdle,
Then it there repeats,
Deep it then sinks,
Plans to overwrite my existence,
But hey,
I hate to see myself so,
Impatient me!
My roots have been shaken,
Body shattered,
My boots have been lost,
Legs falling apart,
But I will stand still,
Bury my roots again,
Stand like never before,
I donβt like lukewarm,
Impatient me!
Pathetic time was mine,
Body cries was nine,
Shivering over the nights,
Waiting for the bright,
My shoulders need me,
My will power calls me,
I am going to shine again,
Trust me,
I am Impatient!
Note: This poem is an extract from my work-in-progress novel where the character is looking for self motivation after a set of horrible life events.Β
Inspiring!

I submitted my full manuscript to a publisher two days ago. May be around the time you made this comment.. π
Waiting to hear their review. Might take time. They have said a month. It could turn out with either result!

He he.. The process is long. If I get positive notice from them, then I will be associated with an editor to make the necessary changes (Might take a month more). They have a long process.
I do have a lot of positive hopes. Thank you so much.. This means a lot to me.. π Will sure let know, pass or fail. π
