322. The tale we wove

 Life’s path, when it seems rough and the destination far,

Faith within me ignites a hero with a scar.

These scars narrate stories of perseverance 

Even in moments when I feel vulnerable

To keep going, doing my duty with love and quiet assurance 

Even when situations are unfavorable.

Embracing the journey and weaving the tale,

Self-reflection and relearning may take attempts, but are never a fail.

Turning roadblocks into opportunities to embrace,

Understanding each of us has our own timeline and we are not in a race.

In this movie named life, the different roles we play,

Moments may fade, but the lessons stay.

Inner heroism is accepting broken pieces without self-blame,

Not feeling inferior, not shrinking in shame.

Fighting our best, patting our backs for trying,

And emerging as warriors quietly defying.

Tough times are just a pause before we leap,

Still, miles to go before I sleep!!!

321. Reverse poetry

 

Reverse poetry 

I surrender myself to the mind tree 

Mind said God is nowhere how do I control it

I let mind control me as this day I sit 

Typing a text to a contact hoping to calm mind 

It's best to not save contact 

When I am impacted by ones status and act

Today as I felt low 

I wanted someone to check on me now 

So I typed and sent a message

The opposite person didn't engage 

It started building up my anxiety 

So many days I was focussed on my duty 

And today suddenly the persons non response was making a difference to me 

Writing poetry definitely helps to calm mind 

It's ok to save contact 

As far as I instruct mind to act 

I don't want anyone to check on me 

I have left behind the baggage of validation and set myself free

Chanting gods name helps me overcome my anxiety 

I should continue to be persistent with my duty 

Anybody's action shouldn't control my day 

I am here to grow , be stronger and slay

Mind said God is now here but persistence is the key 

I surrender myself to the divine and feel free!

319 something I forgave but never forgot

 I forgave myself but will never forget 

This is a chapter of my life I prefer to keep it shut

Attachment lead me to being possessive

Greed to hoard everything massive 

Giving someone false hope

And creating trust issues scope

Placing words well is a million dollar skill 

It can give life to any relation or even kill 

Corrupted mind can't see the true love instance 

God still gave me love in abundance 

Here starts my karma cleansing 

Removed one chunk by sincerely apologizing 

People move on ,things are fine

I have evolved too but I own this instance as mine 

I am not proud of the self which was the lowest me 

But with time I am healing and settling mys

elf guilt free 

318. Unsent letter

   

Unsent letter 

I do have a bunch of unsent letter which I didn't discard

When I was younger I used to write letter in postcard

Watsapp does have 'delete for all 'option

Letter writing doesn't have this feature or caption 

For me letter writing was always in fashion in each phase and climate 

In this school named life , I met a classmate 

We shared the same stationary and bench

Shared laughter, aspirations and lunch

Attending class and Sharing smile 

Although we are now located away by miles 

It was the First day of may , rainy and cool 

When he decided to change the school 

He would have new friends and story 

Hope the friendship doesn't end up being just a memory 

I kept writing him letter 

But with technology emails seemed better 

Certain memories are linked to season 

When rain falls , I also felt teary eyed for other reason 

The season changed so did the climate 

And one day our path crossed fate 

I missed those innocent warm letter tale

Just as letter writing was replaced by email 

I wrote a letter to him as below but to post I fail

It reads :

I now know that people too are like season and phase 

I can't expect the same warmth as the very base 

When we were younger we connected more

Now the priority is different at core

As we part away I wished a last hug with passion 

You are a stranger now and left without expression 

I dont know your side of story deep

I just realised that it's time to take a leap 

I loved you but you aren't my man and I realised late 

We have met our true partners and written in fate

With changing season the memories peeled

I overcome my emotions for you a

nd have moved on, healed !!!

317. Borrowed Light

I am a borrowed light says my thought

Whose day used to be determined by parents whereabout

I was tied with my baggage which didn't let me free

Their mind status was a medium which led my mind control me 

Once they were gone it was difficult for me to gather back 

As my light source was gone and everything just felt lack 

My parents home after they left feels just a built up of 4 wall 

Once it shined so bright and now the essence faded afterall 

But does it mean life stops ?

Or we all life with constant hope ?

I started listening to a thought provoking speech 

Which inspired me to action on wisdom each

The motivation is like a borrowed light 

Which helps to take a step forward to keep away baggage and feel light 

But what happens after a day or two ?

As the borrowed Light faded , I saw my nature true 

Mostly I was back to square one 

The aspect that needed to be pondered was how borrowed Light be a part within ? 

How to dissolve it and make it my own with true intent 

To have a strong mindset even when I no longer listen to motivation content 

Answer to this is discipline and faith 

It's tough to follow the correct path 

I may be a source of light to someone dear 

When God and my parents blessings is with me why to fear ?

Each day I feel I fail and cry 

But I ensure I don't fail to try !!!

316. Conversation Poetry

 

Conversation poetry between me and cupboard on Hoarding*

Do you believe that we change with time ?

My hoarding habit that once felt absolutely fine 

As I opened my cupboard,I saw things accumulated in pile

Cupboard - why did you store me all this while ?

Assuming I would come to your use one day ?

You just had urge to have me and then you had nothing to say 

Me-  ' Oh my dear .. I am sorry for not valuing you

My priorities were such that I missed out on you 

Dear old cloths , I had stored you to make some craft few 

But donating you so that someone in need can wear you 

Cupboard - Oh thanks ! You have emptied me that is in front of you 

What about the hoarding of thoughts on your mind within you ?

Me- How do I empty them and refresh and recharge mind

 

I remember all trivial things , I try to forget but subconsciously I do find 

Cupboard - Ah !! You need practice to prioritize what matters the most 

Don't miss out on your present at any cost 

You will figure out your way out 

But heal yourself and overcome self doubt 

To hoarded cloths , some good use you brought 

Same way use your creativity to streamline your thoughts!!!
