A Pair of Poems

Written by: Abeeda

Intertwined

When you care,

You cannot help but absorb every detail;

It is just how your heart was built.

You cannot bear to see their needs unmet,

And so,

Their hopes become embedded in yours,

And that is how you became intertwined.

What Will Be

There is nothing promised in tomorrow,

Just a mirage of hopes and dreams.

True substance and wealth is held in today,

What we plant in seeds,

And what we hope will grow–

We may not see the beauty of what flourishes,

But we stand to gain much from the blessing of trying.
