At The Edge Of Waiting Poem by Shakira Nandini

She sits atop her weathered case,
Her dreams concealed in time's embrace.
With quiet poise and gaze afar,
Her soul reflects a distant star.

Trains rush by with fleeting cries,
"Embark, " they urge, "where freedom lies."
But rooted still, she softly stays,
Her heart lost in reflection's maze.

The breeze whispers of paths untold,
Of journeys bright, of courage bold.
Her heels point forth, yet still she clings,
To memories bound in suitcase strings.

Her silent eyes, a world within,
Hold tales of loss and dreams akin.
The platform hums with life's demand,
Yet here she lingers, thought in hand.

The tracks extend, horizon bends,
Life's choices speak where silence ends.
Between the past and what's in store,
She breathes, she waits, for something more.

This pause, a tale of stillness deep,
Where time and journey gently meet.
A soul prepared for what's to be,
A story etched in destiny.
