To hold on / to let go



Every  dawn upon the decision 

I munch  thoughts in tears 

To put behind the dealt derision

That led to the infliction of  fears 


The habits of agitating over the past 

The wont of  bursting in cries

To let go of myself 

To severe the unwanton  ties 


Slowly upon a revelation 

I waft up in an understanding 

There is no letting go 

Atleast  to a certain reasoning 


Upon the  crevices of a wretched soul

The flickering light dawns

It is not me , it is about them

An understanding arrives


I let go of their faults 

Its their's to bear

Till now weighed upon my soul

A regrettable wretched strife 


All animosity disappears

My feelings float a past

In eternities perpetual bliss

Though only for while

Soothing Balms




Sometimes the snow in a far of land 

Sometimes the rain near me 

Sometimes the dewy morning rays

Amd sometimes the cool evening breeze


Sometimes the starlit night sky  

Sometimes the pale waning  moon

Sometimes the morning mountains 

And sometimes the evening shore


Sometimes reading a book

Sometimes  a poem being read would do

Sometimes a melody

And sometimes writing one too


Sometimes a smile on your face

Sometimes a good word too

Sometimes the kindness in your eyes

And sometimes the awareness of your love too
