Odetolife Stories

Flip the rusty pages of old journals and diaries. Sniff the life of them, in my soul. A parting gift from the faded memories of a life lived. Write a handwritten letter to the beloved,one last time stringing the words together in an ode. Read my favourite book,tracing my fingers along the letters, embracing them before bidding them a farewell. Cook a wholesome meal and savour it before the dusk dawns and along with it the termination of a life. Feel the touch of warm sunshine on my skin,before transcending into the looming darkness that awaits. Scrutinize souvenirs from every place visited, soaking in the beauty, a memory of a lifetime. Play that one song, emanating the warmth of a youthful radiance. Sit by the windowsill, contemplating not the end, but the ethereal worldliness. Take a placid nap, bidding adieu to the ephemeral ties and material possessions. Eventually, embrace death, leaving behind everything but gratitude.

This poem is all about life. Live life and enjoy the gifts. No turning back and no breaking hearts, Inhale and exhale without regrets. ❤
