It’s been one of those days when nothing’s really gone my way! A time when I’ve felt sort of low, and then sort of high with those lows too, and playing with me, some thoughts I do not know from where they crop up! One of my friends told that I should write it out in a blog post, as that always helps, but I cannot write what I do not know! I did try to, but in the end, I only could be silent. Going through my diary, I found a poem that was once written in such a mood, and inspired by a line said by my friend Kirti. I share with you this verse today.
there is no freedom
for my muse to fly today
when future seems
so much like yesterdays
there are no beats
melancholic heart feels
there is no moment
that my dream can steal
there is no story
in my eyes that are blind
there are no words
to lessen the tears I find
there is no voice
in a heart that consoles
there is no life
in the breath of my soul
Shared with the poets at D’verse Open Link Night.

Poetry & writing to me are to me, a breath of fresh air in a life that is sometimes covered by the smoke of sorrow or self doubt. They also become the sweets I share to celebrate when life offers me a reason to. But most of all, they are to me, my life. For each word I write is a piece of my heart, a thought that just had to find its way into the world.
