The deepest path...
Everything around me is collapsing,
Like a falling Jenga tower.
You suddenly rouse at midnight, to the pitter-patter of rain,
Believing that heaven is crying for you,
Gawking at the whirls of the fan above you,
Night after Night...
And then, One fine summer you cotton on,
That you cannot turn round the ratchet of time.
To the point that everything under the sun happens for a reason,
Be it for good or worse.
That your life isn't a fallen Jenga tower,
But a jigsaw, where the part missing is nothing but you.
That you've been lost in your own trapped mind.
But now, the deepest path you ever took,
Had led you from a nightmare to a fairytale,
Where you choose to heal your untouched wounds,
Where you choose to control the rain of your haven,
The clouds of your self-doubt,
The storm within you,
The summer of your happiness,
And,
The winter of your own emotions.
The deepest path you ever take is backbreaking.
It's maddening.
And, you're bound to feel exasperated.
But,
Always remember,
In the end,
You come home.
We all come home.

ReplyDeleteShould we take it as
ReplyDeleteFrustration of independence lost or love from family gained
Because of coming home at the end
#corona #lockdown
It was not written keeping in mind the covid period.

Either way this nightmare would lead you to your fairytale as well.
Moreover, coming home is what everyone seek✨
