I heard tat the best way of healing is to deal with the pain. i know the blog i wrote is depressing but there you go.. another one.. before you deal with pain i personally feel we go thru a period of numbness. Here is somethin that was penned down when i was in this haze..
I feel it approaching
out of the deep dark alley
I see it first just as a straw in the hay
It is a silent threat, not heard only felt
Like the storm you see quietly but forcefully
dancing on the horizon.
That you can feel the mist upon you
Because the second you don't realize
That is the second it grabs a hold on you.
I feel it approaching

Like the storm you see quietly but forcefully
dancing on the horizon.
When i look inside,
I find what i dint know i had
I used to mend quite easily, not
Knowing that there was
more to the scars than healing.
Sometimes i wonder what’s worse
The sorrow, that empty hollow feeling,
What’s worse? the pain gnawing
Through your bones or the feeling of numbness
which seeps through your bones into those crevices
That you didn’t know you had.
That you can feel the mist upon you
Because the second you don't realize
That is the second it grabs a hold on you.
There's nothing as sublime as poetry to give vent to our inner most thoughts/voices.
ReplyDeleteYours does a commendable job !
A moving piece. Understood it. Appreciating it.
Are you aware if u had sent me this before? I was checking my inbox for similar poem from you but cant find it. Did you send it through chat box or something?
ReplyDeleteNevertheless, simply outstanding piece of work. And yes even when tragedy strikes us, we go thro the period of numbness before it really sinks in. But are we always aware of the moment? I guess never.Full marks to you for realizing, fearing and living that moment in this poem. More such poems I see, be rest assured I will start bothering you to copyright these works :)
there is no pain you are receding...
