Are We Two Ships Passing In The Dark?
Life's Meanderings Through Troughs & Triumphs...........
That’s life isn’t it?
Two ships in the dark
Sometimes meet
Sometimes apart
Sometimes back to the start
.. And sometimes we take off where we left
It’s mostly that we meet when i am happy
But then there are times I am bereft
Tumultuous soul that’s me
I am often at sea
That's life isn’t it?
Gotta live it with grit!
But what’s the use I ask myself?
I mean where is it leading, it’s so dark?
I feel there is sometimes blankness
Staring at me, a wall that I think looks stark
I feel I am desolate in a terrain severe.
But then I realize, Gosh, my vision isn’t complete
I hadn’t seen the rest at all !!
Why do I sometimes stall?
It’s quite a brilliant part that I had missed
Sheer ignorance, which is not bliss
I am assured that I must open my eyes to see
That there is much awaiting me
Maybe you could come to my side
And begin to look at things at this angle
Using a lens more wide?
Listen! I cannot promise that it gets better
But I feel that there is more
To life’s pages in this letter
I somehow feel we’ll be fine
But I do know you will shine
Try to have that patience, it won’t hurt.
I know it’s tough to do.......
And we do tend to hem and skirt
But issues resolve and this I know is true
When the night is dark a cliché I quote
The sun shines brighter
And you can jog in the light I promise
Feeling happy, and more than ever before..... Lighter
Of heart, body and soul

as said : we make a living by by what we get and a life by what we give...
ReplyDeletenisha , in these words you give hope and optimism inspite of the darkness of pain in the background.
@Nirupama, the yin and yang, the opposites and the contradictions that make me ............

ReplyDeleteNormally there is a "question" poem and an"answer" poem.The one is a neophyte enquiry, the other a seasoned understanding. Rare it is, to have a "dialogue" poem like this, which is both! like the change of metre in the lines"But then I realize, Gosh, my vision isn’t complete
ReplyDeleteI hadn’t seen the rest at all !!"
actually creating a yacht like experience! Aye captain;)
because darkness & light are both part of life, one cannot exist without the other?
ReplyDelete@Shail one often has a dialogue in soliloquy isnt it? you just converse and this poem was a one of one shot no editing!
