-Light-
Darkness pours into me
in shimmering rivulets,
-Is-
thrumming in staccatos
of carnal dour;
-All-
begging me to yield, to burn,
to drown in its mercy,
-That-
But it knows not that
a flicker is all it takes
to light
-Remains-
Diwali, the festival of light, celebrated in India signifies this hope, new beginnings and the power of light.
A very happy diwali to everyone!
I'm very thankful to everyone in this wonderful community who have been constantly supporting me and have been appreciating my poems. I have now decided to take a break in writing as I'm almost at the end of my senior year in school and things have started to get hectic. I may not be able to post anything for a few months. Hopefully by the time I come back with a new poem, I'd have a good chance of getting into my dream college(fingers crossed):D
