My mind is racing
of words unuttered;
My body is pacing
with muscles unstretched;
My thoughts are lacing
of feelings unexpressed;
My feelings are stashing
of moments unfelt;
My heart is aching
of wishes unfulfilled;
I begin to start living
as I hope
My pains will be healing
I begin to start living
as I hope
My pains will be healing
Hi Latha,your poem is too good. It seems to be flowing straight from the hear!! The lines"my heart is aching
ReplyDeleteof wishes unfulfilled" are very touching and soulful.I read it at least three times and each time it had a greater impact. Wonderful.
Hi Latha,your poem is marvellos. The lines"My heart is aching
ReplyDeleteof wishes unfulfilled" are very soulful and touchy.Wonderful poem.
It's always surprising to me. I don't understand what lines impress my readers and what don't. I had written this quite some time back, but felt it was incomplete. So, never published it. I thought, it's never going to be complete..so go ahead and push the button :)
DeleteAgain, thank you so much for the encouragement, Usha ji. Your kind sweet words cheer me up any day :)
And I can only think of my tooth pain as I read your last two lines and nod my head :).
ReplyDeleteHehehe..you know the only time we are officially allowed to eat ice creams, is when our tooth hurts..so go ahead and beat the heat!! Btw, sneak okay..or else the boys and COCO are going to come after you...LOL
DeleteWow fantastic lines FIF loved so much meaning in all those words fantastically written :D "Hope" is the key of everything :D
ReplyDeleteThank you Sweety!! Sure, it is!! :)
DeleteMay all the pains subside with each passing day.... happiness always Latha:)
ReplyDeleteThank you for the kind words and best wishes, Rahul sir. :)
DeleteBeautiful Latha. Every word packs a punch.
ReplyDeleteReally?? I didn't think it was that powerful when I wrote it...you know sometimes, you scribble to clear out the clouds in your head.
DeleteBeautifully expressed. Optimism and hope makes the world go round! :)
ReplyDeleteAin't it? Very True Shilpa. Been down with Sinus.. hope to catch up on your posts soon :)
DeleteMy words strangely are failing
ReplyDeleteTo praise adequately the beautiful writing!!
You spending time to read my lines itself is a token of appreciation. Any word you say is a spirit of encouragement. So, no worries :)
DeleteThank you so much!!!
Wishing more happiness and more dreams for you. :)
ReplyDeleteThank you Amit. Dreams, I always live in a dreamland :)
DeleteLovely poem Latha!
ReplyDeleteThank you, Rama!!
DeleteSimple yet straight from the heart and lovely !
ReplyDeleteThank you Jaish!!
DeleteUuttered words & unexpressed feelings no doubt haunt the mind.These lines must have come out in a weak moment-you are not always like that.
ReplyDeleteSee how such moments give way to happiness again?
Yes. They do aunty. You are right. They came in a weak moment and I published this in another weak moment. How did you say that I am always not like that? :)
DeleteLet go, Lata. Express, show anger, don't hold back - it's very liberating.
ReplyDeleteThat's what I do most of the times, still it doesn't work and I have to hold them back...Thank you for the supporting words.
DeleteGood one :)
ReplyDeleteAfter long time. Thank you. Glad to see you back :)
