There is always
Something someplace someone there
To inspire you

The night has the power
The energy to absorb, its dark
The absence of light makes it dark
To liberate and put off the fears
The light has the power, switch it on
Tuned to light, the vision in the dark, at loss
So the dark has the power over the light
It takes away all, makes things invisible
Don’t be afraid
It is the light within that guides, the vision
To switch off or switch on
Discretion lies with the mind


✨✨
Just some thoughts :)

you inhale tragedies
and exhale poetry
From where do you get your perseverance?

Same Path..
Different Cars.
Same Destination...
The Observation is of a Typical Highway where many different Car of different Shapes, Sizes and Colors travel from one place to another where the Destination is the same irrespective of the Car.  Is this not a lesson we should also learn and Wake up and Understand that though our beliefs may vary but the Destination is the same.  Hatred towards different beliefs should stop and cease immediately.

With desperation dripping off my chin
I scurry around this way and that
Trying to catch up the herd that
Knowingly is leaving me behind

I trip on stones I couldn’t see
Through all the rainstorm on my face
And stumble even further back behind

With need that pushes hunger off the list
I strive for things not physical
But nebulous and indistinct
That shimmer in the distance
And are always out of reach

Brings to mind an old pop song from the 70's or  80's.  It said "I'm in with the in-crowd...I go where the in-crowd goes.  I'm in with the in-crowd...I know what the in-crowd knows"
Why do we long for that?  Especially those who say they don't.

The little girl was asked how  she would save the world, if ever it is needed...

She just smiled and with a wink  replied: A robe, A broomstick and some pixie dust...!
We were so innocent once upon a time... Really it feels sometimes... As if it would have been so good if we forever remained young!
