"....have patience with everything unresolved in your heart and to try to love the questions themselves as if they were locked rooms or books written in a very foreign language. Don’t search for the answers, which could not be given to you now, because you would not be able to live them. And the point is to live everything. Live the questions now. Perhaps then, someday far in the future, you will gradually, without even noticing it, live your way into the answer.”
― Rainer Maria Rilke, Letters to a Young Poet

Know me...


If you can still hear the words
In my silence, wherever I am
If you can still word the lyrics of my song
In my absence, wherever you are
You know me...

If you can hold onto the thoughts
The first one's and a few last's
If you can still see eye to eye
Even when you are U and i am I
You know me...

Acceptance...



If in roses, I find thorns
In fear my heart throngs
If in love, I find pain
In doubt my heart drains
If in emotions, I find words
In depth my heart hoards
If in my soul, I find me
In acceptance my heart's free

Wake me up...

The lyrics of the song 'Wake me up' by Avicii that inspired this poem..

It took awhile to realise
What this was,
That wasn't over

A step ahead
A step back
A hiccup of fear
I knew it clear

I took my time
With every line
On a canvas I drew
The thoughts words threw

Moving on...




Far  forever  to trot
With  faith in a knot
In silence I sought
The one thing…
I paid more than I bought

For in that pact
I wrote to hold intact
I unearthed a fact
I had to react
