The rain is welcome anytime
From the cloudy skies
On the boughs of trees
Life’s blood free.
Pouring on my roof tiles
You can hear it for miles
Happy melody it plays
Lightning, thunder for days.
Gets into my hair
Crouches inside my lair.
Soaks into my skin
Blood and rain are kin.
Both course through my body
Renewing, repairing, rejuvenating
Gushing is the flow
Always music in tow.
A drop from heavens
Falls on the fiery earth
Quenches its thirst.
A drop from the heavens
Cools the hot sweat
In it I bathe.
A drop from the heavens
On the yellowed leaves
Has the promise of life.
A drop from the heavens
Scorches all with its coolness
Soaks in the cells.
A drop from the heavens
Brings along its friends
Energizes the sultriness.
A drop for the heavens
Gives it quality
Vows of redemption.
Black clouds gather,
Lightning or thunder,
With roar in ears,
The rain comes here.
With the clash of clouds,
The droplets smear,
The face of earth,
A view so dear.
Dancers of nature,
Sway with vigour,
Rejuvenating self,
Oh so eager!
Join them says soul
You need some cheer,
Where would you find,
Saltless tear.
The rains are here… Had the first showers yesterday… It was beautiful here… And my BPD mind only wanted to run out and get drenched and dance in the rains… Had to control the urge… Was so difficult with the grey-black skies and big droplets coming down from the heavens! I have a yearning inside me… I feel so unsettled and cut off somehow…as if a limb of mine is missing… Dunno if it’s rains or BPD… It’s a pleasure pain of a unique kind…
Need a break from everything tonight…. Need a break from self…. Dunno what’s wrong…. Just that I’m too tired of it all today….. Wanna end it all…. But can’t….. And won’t…. That path leads to defeat and I’m no loser….. Have never lost and won’t be learning to anytime soon now…. I’m feeling so miserable right now but I dunno the reason behind it….
There’s this continuous pain, metaphysical pain that goes on and on and I don’t know how to tackle it. Courage is not the absence of fear. True courage is when you are shit scared and still you do your duty. True courage is doing your duty responsibly in the face of adversity.
Have been reading different blogs thinking they might help me more…..
Keep walking …
There’s a yearning
In my soul,
What I wait for
I don’t know.
Yearn for methinks,
The bygone days,
The simple joys,
The simple faith.
The promise of rains,
The darkened skies,
The swaying trees,
The hazy lanes.
The parched earth,
The thirsty birds,
The lazy bees,
The tired men.
From my window,
I see it all,
Awaiting breathless
For first rainfall.
“There you come,
With silent steps,
Or a fanfare mighty,
With torrents of rain!
You sing melodies,
On my rooftop.
I listen and breathe
Your enchanted songs!”
The whole world
Dances, rejoices,
Bathes and cleanses,
In your waters purifies!
From my window,
I see it all,
Am born anew,
Body, mind & soul.
I laugh, I twirl,
I sing, I swirl.
I tread lightly
On dusky clouds!
I shout out loud,
Throw away the shroud,
I learn the beauty,
Of the truly alive!
The Yin of Everything!
