The Invisible Inevitable

By Andrew Rejano



Once my heart was a brilliant bright sunny day,
     With the snail like clouds breathing against my tranquil face.
Feeling the rhapsody of love without say,
     And the gentle warmth and calm singing from the bird's grace.
Now my heart is filled with a loud darkened atmosphere,
     Grey glooms from the clouds depressing the sun,
Not shining its luminous feelings when my soul is presently here.
     A total eclipse of the heart that is not done.
Only my emotionless shadow exists in silence,
     For silence breathes nothing in my confused mind.
When will the warmth shine without high heavy tense?
     Or the strife between the sun and moon depart in the stars behind?
I pray that both shall perish on one's rising sun or the moon's good night kiss,
     Only to fear that day shall occur when my heart breaks in a fading vision of an empty bliss.


Andrew Rejano (15) of Ajax, Ontario, attends Grade10 at Notre Dame Catholic Secondary School in Canada. He finds poetry and creative writing as a way to express his mind, thoughts and emotions on what may currently be happening in his life or just when he just feel like writing. He also acknowledges his talent as a rare gift from God.
