My Arrival Poem by Harun Al Nasif

Upon Arrival,
I noticed there was no one:
Everyone had gone away.
Those who were expected to
be waiting for me
and were supposed to
take me along,
could not be seen anywhere.

As I did not show up in time,
they just made their way,
ending the bouts of waiting.

But my arrival was solely for them,
I came from a long way,
crossing over mountains of hurdles.

Now I have nowhere to go,
no destination awaits me.
Those who have gone away,
have carried away with them
my destination too, .

Proving every doubt wrong,
here have I reached.
No uncertainties
have been able to stop me.

Now let them come and witness:
I have come true to my my words
And let them make me
their new destination.
