The Dashing Fountain
I was falling into the well of life
Baffled, spooked and untethered
Having no control whatsoever
With no end I could see
Through time life put many cuts on me
There was love and then rejection
There was happiness and then sorrow
There was applaud and soon regret
There was trust and later betrayal
Life continued striking to knock me down
Finally, life blew me down to the end of the well
I laid there wearing my bones
There were no tears left in my eyes
Only darkness in the two sockets of my skull
I rested in this coffin of failures and regrets
Weeds and flowers were grown around
The sepulchre silence was deafening
But then I heard a sparkling sound
Coming under from where I was laying
It was amplifying through time
Getting mightier and mightier like a roar
Hallelujah, it was not the end for me
Water slowly started coming out
From underneath to fill the desolation
The desolation of the well of life
It touched my bones and skull
And I started rising up gradually
Rising up against all my rejections
Against all my defeats and sorrows
I dashed out from the doomed well of life
Like a spectacular fountain of steadfast
I came out from the hole with full of life
Boldly rising up above mountains and sky
To the unknown and beyond
