Life puzzles and fuzzes
when Love is misused
The broken heart
Swallowing layers and layers of void
Creates a vault of bigger abyss!
And the world ceases---all appears to end.
But,.... life begins again
Like stars that rise when the other has set
--- life beckons with a smile once again
The germ of life is hidden in void-
pick the seed, transplant it; and climb out of the abyss!!
Life's brief; it's meaning briefer
Sometimes... love wins...else, frees all ties
But, life moves on ...and lives
Hence, gripping the time in hands
one must must never sink-
Life puddles have no depth
Soothe the crazy pulse of hate...re-shape life.
Thrust yourself forward...the race is long!
Let the darkness leave
Rise...when all that's bright has left
Let tune of hope lend a light
Live on and on...Love again
Love is a blessing.

Thought provoking ma'm. It takes great courage to let go and start afresh. But then, do we have another option? The earlier the realization dawns the better.
ReplyDeletewonderfully penned too as usual:)

DeleteSo, that's the only option we have...not easy to start, as you said, maliny.
Thanks a bunch for the inspiring comment. xoxo
If people can't love, at least they can try to understand!
ReplyDeleteLove is becoming more and more difficult in our times.
Matheikal...I understand the claustrophobia of being in a space where people do not understand, the anxiety of being in a place we do not feel to be in...but, c'est la vie!! :((
DeleteThanks a lot for stopping by...
every end is an indication of another beginning so rightly portrayed .. love alive and rest dead !! you are just amazing !!!
ReplyDeletec'est la vie!! So move on--that's what fills us with expectations for the future. Thanks a bunch, mysay :))) Good to see you always! :D
DeleteA beautiful, uplifting poem, when all else fails there is always love.
ReplyDeleteStepping out into light is therapeutic always...love has strength! Thanks a ton, Lisa for your encouragement :)
DeleteGreat uplifting poem mam...True that, it's love that makes life worth living..re-living...worries, hatred and everything else are mere spur in the vast ocean of life, prodding one to move forward...shouldn't be taken as a spot to hault , for moving is life :)
ReplyDeleteSadia...How beautifully you delved deeper into the range of emotions--wow! Thanks for that beautiful comment...you made my day!
DeleteHi Panchali, This is an awesome poem. It is thoughtful and inspiring. You have penned the spirit of optimism I loved the lines
ReplyDeleteLike stars that rise when the other has set
--- life beckons with a smile once again
The germ of life is hidden in void-
Hi Usha, Thank you for that encouragement. You made my day...:))) Since I was traveling, I have missed out quite a few blogs, ...shall be reading them all in my own pace. Shall visit your space soon :)
DeleteThanks a ton!
I like the way you expressed the life puddles have no depth. So true. They may be wide but are not deep, and eventually they will evaporate. Hopefully most people ARE resilient and will find a way to live on and love on despite the hard knocks, difficult times, and 'puddles' one is forced to endure! Hope you had pleasant travels, Panchali!!
ReplyDeleteMary,Dealing effectively with our difficulties and problems requires appropriate emotional control, acceptance of realities...one must learn to endure and cross such 'puddles'!!

DeleteThe germ of life is hidden in void-is a really cool line in this...life, like nature and the seasons comes around you know....we just have to stick around long enough...love as well...what is our blackest day will be a memory in the light of a new love...
ReplyDeleteBrian...I am glad my poem did not disappoint you...we can't avoid sufferings, our only choice is to bear, overcome them and live joyfully:)))
