#579 KNOCKING gently on healing's door

Knocking gently on heeling’s door

Source: BlogChatter


It was one such day today,
My body felt heavier than usual,
Stuck to the bed as if lifeless,
When the alarm rang.

My morning starts at 6am,
That’s when I leave my bed,
To kickstart my day with,
Completing preplanned lessons.

But today was different,
Even though I was wide awake,
When the alarm rang but just
Laid still, staring at the roof.

I was blank and numb,
A flood of tears came rolling down,
No, I wasn’t emotional or
Overwhelmed by any thoughts.

Generally, I’m a happy woman,
Always stay engaged as much as I can,
With many hobbies that have filled up
My soul more than anyone ever can.

I neither pushed myself to be normal,
Nor tried to investigate the reasons,
All I knew was that I wasn’t emotional
Just waited for that flood to calm down.

I am alone in the moment, inside
A four-walled room, not looking for
Anyone to comfort me in any form,
Writing this poetry as its outcome.

I understand that my soul wants to cleanse,
Getting rid of suppressed emotions,
I just have to be kind and forgiving,
To listen to the unanswered expressions.

Now, that the tears have dried and 
Letting my fingers what they wanted to type,
I am regaining the former me ;
Not at once but slowly and steadily.
