As you travel through Life…

2012-02-10T15:31:00.000-08:00

As you travel through life ~
you'll realise you're alone
with travelers in your life
who'll keep coming n' going
stop not at any crossroad
for the journey is intriguing
you might pause though, to ponder
when you've to take the hard decisions
where the solutions seem non-existent
but, stay rest assured that a new dawn
always awaits you, to help you move on
with a calm mind choose your path, and
set afoot thru' all the vagaries of life
succumb not to the ups n' downs you face
they are a part of life's journey
withdraw if you choose to, but
only to continue with renewed strength
the mysteries of nature are invigorating
and time is the quintessential master
who'll teach you what you've to learn,
unlearn n' relearn, and guide you
to evoke a deeper conscience within you
to be able to imbue the nuances of life
for that is the only way to surge ahead
to a world of your dreams, your goals
and, when you finally reach your destination
there'll be moments of exhilaration n' bliss
with a sense of accomplishment n' pride
never mind what prices you'd to pay enroute
the journey will always be a worthwhile one
and, you'll have with you a story of your own!!

Midnight Sun

2012-02-05T12:28:00.000-08:00

It may be night; it may be dark,

it doesn't make any difference

for there is the midnight sun ~

spreading it's light n' glare

in the sky, in its signature style

a natural phenomena of the universe

in the polar region n' around

that unifies the day n' night

even when the day is gone

illustrating yet another wonder

of this mystical marvellous nature..!!

In the dark confines of our lives

we feel lost n' seek light;

why then do we abhor n' feel unnerved

by not understanding the Spirit's motive

in creating for us, a bright midnight sun

to unveil the hidden secrets of our lives

driving away the darkness for a brief period,

for us to behold this peaceful treasure

that we sought all along but never realize

when it is given unto us in our sojourn

in the land of the Midnight Sun..!!

Words and Silence

2012-01-31T11:59:00.000-08:00

Popular belief is that only the spoken Words are heard but if you really want to increase the effectiveness of your voice then Silence is the most powerful tool..!!

As Margaret Weis rightfully says “Words can never fully say what we want them to say, for they fumble, stammer, and break the best porcelain. The best one can hope for is to find along the way someone to share the path, content to walk in silence, for the heart communes best when it does not try to speak.”

More often we expect from the ones who matter to us a lot, to say it in Words what they mean to say just because we want to "hear" them for we believe that these words transform to feelings but in reality it is the profound enigmatic Silence in the company of true love and concern that evokes in us the feelings we so much yearn for. Only after one has used words as a medium and experienced it's limited power is one truly ready to experience and appreciate the unlimited power of silence. It takes a lot of maturity and understanding to realize how intimate a connection we share with Silence deep down in the pure layers of our inner consciousness. It keeps unveiling to us in so many mysterious ways depending upon the circumstances. It is amazing how expressive Silence could be..!!

In our day to day lives, we continuously let heaps of words, seep into us through our five senses and pile up on our brain thereby cluttering it. Some off these we evaluate and react to; others we just eschew. We are designed as such that words touch most of us only superficially and hence the collosal damage in the form of misinterpretaion and misunderstandings which have a cascading effect on our lives. It takes only the intellectual DNA's to interpret words for their true meaning and essence.

Au contraire to popular definitions, Silence is not absence of noise it has a realm of it own with a light that can only been seen with the inner eyes. It is present in everyone - its just that most never bother look within. Once connected with this, it helps us handle the most difficult decisions of our lives with a clarity of circumstances and pros n' cons like never before. If you have a gift of the gab, learn to speak only when you've to else adopt silence. Pause when necessary and when you have nothing to say at all, SAY NOTHING. Such approaches will have oulasting impact. Learn to use Silence - It is a powerful tool in many contexts.

Silence is not a sign of weakness or loneliness

it's a powerful weapon of souls with fortitude

it has its own energy, substance n' style

which it bestows on us, by condescending us

by showing us its pristine inner light..!!

This too shall pass..!!

2012-01-29T11:46:00.000-08:00

Today, no matter how heavy her heart is

wavering n' shattering to smithereens within

she tries her best to hold herself together,

even if she has to put on a binding layer!

With her world crashing on her on the outside

forcing her to walk the dangerous thin line

she tries to remain as resilient as she can be

clinging to hope n' preserving her integrity!

In this very turbulent phase of her life

when its exacting to endure her living present

she strives hard to fight back the dark nights

no matter how cold n' bleak the outcome seems!

It's the belief that she keeps reinstating

within her that what she is doing is true

with faith that everything will fade away

gradually n' her life will be alright very soon!

At this very crossroad of her life ~

if she is able to take the decision she has to

in the midst of the realm that she's in

she will embark on the path that she's got to!

She just has to keep moving on n' on, holding

together the whole of her unified as ONE

knowing that the darkness shall pave way to light

and, that "This too shall pass away..!!".

AMEN

Little Joys

2012-01-24T12:22:00.000-08:00

Little joys like ~

listening to soothing music

enjoying the whiff of fresh air

watching the dew-drops on leaves

walking on grass or on sand

towards the subtle sunrise or sunset

feeling one within, in blissful solitude

looking at where the horizons meet

gazing at the beauty of the azure sky

or the colors of the meadows

and the smell of earth

during the first showers

it's this midas touch that symbolizes

harmony n' peace in the midst

of the mystical wonders of nature

that give us our ecstatic pleasure..!!

Why trade these rapturous

enchanting thrilling joys

to the dark shadows of

a demanding n' pretentious

world that sucks you within

in its vortex leaving you depraved..??

Get soaked in these joys n' soar high

spreading your wings to unknown heights

setting yourself as free as you can be

enjoying every moment, the beauty of life

and life's little things..!!

Transient Thoughts...

2012-01-20T11:23:00.000-08:00

Transient thoughts

breeze through the mind

with the cold frigid air

brushing across my face

calming my unquiet mind

whispering in my heart

ephemeral emotions of

love, hate, solitude, hope

blending them together

leaving my heart unsteady

frangible n' vulnerable..!!

The dusk to dawn theory

doesn't fit in, somehow

for each day browbeats

the yesterday creating mayhem

n' flits away with a

promise of a better tomorrow

Where then is the today

if it is caught in transition

between both these days..?!

Is it all a fabrication

of an over active mind

or, maybe a simply fictitious

affair with nothing as such

but the yearning of the heart

to seek solace, bliss n' love

in the midst of

chaos n’ profound pain

if not true, then

WHAT IS IT..??

Longing to be young, once again..!!

2012-01-17T12:44:00.000-08:00

It's strange how we transform ~

as we grow, nothing remains the same

as seasons pass by, we are sculpted

to become a more mature persona

isn't it amazing on how the meanings change,

from what we thought of them

when we were young ~

n' receptive to everything around us

why then do we become rigid

with the passing years

remaining no longer tenable

losing all our raw innocence, and

our ability to love unconditionally

to treat every new dawn as a wonder

that appealed to us boundlessly

beckoning us to bring out the best in us

spreading seeds of joy n' happiness

wherever we leave our footprints!

Can we not retain the same innocence

and, preserve our spirit n' soul akin

embalming them in love, innocence n' verve

setting free ourselves from all miseries

and, the meaningless race to keep pace

with an unwanted pretence masking the REAL us??

If by growing up, life turns out to be like this

I long to be young once again, forever...!!

If you ever want to shine like the Sun, you’ve to burn like it!

2012-01-12T12:24:00.000-08:00

Chafing the heart and mind

to break through the mould

and create a mark of your own

is a scalding herculean task

not meant for the weak hearted

for it is not the benevolent full moon

offering its peaceful realm that one seeks

but it is the aura of bright sunlight

that fires the trigger within to be there, and

to do something new that's never done before!

Only as far as I set my vision

will I be able to set the boundaries,

Only as far as I'm able to push yourself

will I be able to identify my true strength

Only as far as I make my dream, my goal

will I be able to shape it in reality

Only when I'm able to see my works take form

will I know that I'm on the right path!

En route the journey of life, I've learnt

it's entirely unto us to be who we are, and

become who we want to be in our lifetime

before trying to command nature in our sojourn

we first have to learn to obey it

we have to learn through every walk of life

as an observer, empathize n' pause to understand

what the nuances in life actually do mean

there's nothing free n' everything comes at a price

just like...

If you ever want to shine like the Sun,

first you have to burn like it..!!

Ambiguous Life

2012-01-09T12:27:00.000-08:00

What do I express of life, this life

save, it's nothing but an ambiguous life!!

a moment of chaos, a moment of calm,

a moment of roar, a moment of whisper,

a moment of light, a moment of darkness,

a moment of sense, a moment of conflict,

a moment of love, a moment of hate,

a moment of clamor, a moment of silence,

a moment of pleasure, a mment of pain,

a moment of pretence, a moment of reality,

a moment of grotesque, a moment of beauty,

a moment of depression, a moment of hope,

and, so many more contrariness

all stemming from the life ~

birth in this mysterious universe,

where time flows forever like the river

undeterred in its journey n' forever sparkling

bringing in a new facet with it every new day

that changes a part of us; for good or bad

but who's the master to judge, no one knows..??

life moves on and the cycle continues on n' on

till one fine day when death takes you away

to yet another unfamiliar unknown territory

where you rest in peace from this damnation

setting your spirited soul free for eternity

nothing would change after you're dead n' gone

there would be a momentary pause by the loved ones

till they find their grounds n' surge ahead, and

the universe continues its vicious rigmarole

birthing new souls n' taking them through it all

just like how it did with you while you lasted here

such are the vagaries of life, our ambiguous life..!!

A time to rend, a time to sew

2012-01-07T07:45:00.000-08:00

She'd an unmatched zeal as was her pursuit

to learn the true n' real meaning of life

she embraced her quest n' set out in zest

but it did not take her long to realize

what the harshness in life had done to her heart

she was no longer a reflection of her true self

she loved company but felt alone in crowd

she wasn't lonely but she longed for a world

that was filled with peace, bliss n' love

she paused when she couldn't comprehend

the perils of life that consumed her whole

but she bounced back with her fiery spirit

piecing herself together to continue her transit

to seek what she sought, such intense was her will

as time flowed, she learnt more n' more

she never believed in the doctrines

n' always left it to the sands of time

to guide her through her journey of life

be it her fate, destiny or the winds of change

n' all the realities that she found strange

like a wise sojourner, she imbued the real

and felt exalted, liberated n' joyous

as she realized the meaning of life anew

that there is always "a time to rend and a time to sew"!

Silence

2012-01-02T12:26:00.000-08:00

When chaos n’ turmoil are flagrant in my life

n' I momentarily think I can't handle the rife

when tact’s, deeds n' words fail to do the needful

that's when I adopt the SILENCE that's powerful!

In the depth of silence ~

as I embark on the journey deep within

to contemplate over the realm that I live-in

as my musings n' thoughts unfold in my mind

I let them have a free flow, unchaining the binds

my heart, spirit n' soul akin connect as whole

bolstering my conscience, to take full control!

The harder the resolute to seek the answers

with the dauntless tenacity to not give-in

ensure a clean sweep of the cluttered mind

quasi yet real are the choices of this sojourn

now, it's up to me to decide which path to choose!

Silence is not a sign of weakness or loneliness

it's a powerful weapon of souls with fortitude

Silence brings together the elements within me

it has its own energy, substance n' style

Silence, I revere your presence in my life

for condescending me and showing me light!

SILENCE… I bow to thee for eternity..!!

New Year Wishes

2011-12-29T11:58:00.000-08:00

Only a second separates the last year to the new year

yet, so much changes in terms of perspective...

hope blossoms, new dreams are envisaged on the anvil,

intellect is slaked, goals reset, heart rekindled,

mind rejuvenated, spirit wanting to burst at will,

letting go off the murky past n' moving on...

to enjoy the pleasures of new beginnings in Life..!!

The New Year holds aplenty in its arms ~

to reveal n' unleash them all as moments unfold

where every sunrise sees a new reality born

leaving it unto us to make our choices

owning up for our actions n' deeds, and

making it a motive to live our life to the fullest

in bliss n' serenity instead of serendipity..!!

My wishes for you are for you ~

to live a life of dignity grounded by your values

where you dare to be real in a world of pretence

be an epitome of patience, grace n' strength

ready to take on life as you scale new heights

sowing seeds of love, joy, care, bliss n' peace

wherever you go, in merriment n' abundance..!!

::: HAPPY NEW YEAR :::

A Poem

2011-12-27T13:50:00.000-08:00

Penning a poem to me

is as important as expressing

all of me trapped within me..!!

We all have our daily lives,

pursuits, goals to accomplish

but what remains trapped within

are the words and emotions unexpressed

and this is exactly what a poem does

it gives it form, a persona, an identity,

of being something that someone can relate

to other than the poet who penned it

a poem is a reflection of ~

thoughts, realization n' feelings

flowing from the poet's mind

into the medium chosen to express

to connect a lot of unchained thoughts,

cognizant enough to evoke the inner "YOU"

thru' the poet's heart, mind, spirit n' soul

woven together and manifested as a POEM..!!

Merry X'Mas

2011-12-22T13:01:00.000-08:00

the real souvenir that X'Mas brings ~
is the love, joy, happiness spread everywhere,
and, the pleasant regale that bestows the air,
with all enjoying the exuberant merriment n' fanfare!

the vibrant colors n' magnificent tree,
enthralling one n' all in its creation,
with surprise gifts hidden for loved ones,
chosen with thoughtful care n' affection!

fragrant scents, chilling weather that's resplendent,
gleaming faces bright with content, eyes sparkling
with dazzling smiles, warm hugs n' glowing hearts,
make this a special festive season of holy delight!

O! X'Mas, heavenly beatific X'Mas...
we all have been waiting the whole year long,
for you to weave the magic with your spirit,
to bring on the time for harmony, rejoice n' cheers!

With prayers deep down my heart, I wish ~
may there be an angel to bless every soul on earth,
may there be no dearth of true love n' bliss, and
may our lives remain forever simple n' revel in mirth!

::: MERRY X'MAS :::

Emotional Scars

2011-12-21T09:19:00.000-08:00

scars get inflicted in all walks of life
while some are external n' heal with time
it's the emotional ones that leave their mark
n' remain etched, dark n' deep in our minds!

these scars're hidden n' do not 've any visible form
torn, deranged n' fragmented are how they exist
they're caused when the heart is pierced n' bleeds
for the free flow of mental trauma refuses to cease!

a surge of emotions wreath around such scars
making one a wreck trapped within oneself
faltering faith, broken heart, shattered hopes
depression envelopes as they erupt like tropes!

emotional scars are scathed within n' do not show
akin to the deep wounds that do not heal
it's seldom that one can really feel n' see
what the one with the emotional pain deeply feels!

Away, Abjectness...

2011-12-12T13:52:00.000-08:00

a past to let go

a present to live

a tomorrow to look forth to!

Why then does abjectness

come to the fore

when the dusk prevails

with all the obscurity

that we park aside

during the melee of the day

until the new day dawns

with twilight, to herald hopes

of striving to live another day

with all that it has to offer!

The earth continues to revolve

the river continues to flow

with the breezy winds blowing

n' the wonders of Mother Nature

calming us down as they always do!

Is it the concrete jungle

rife with rules of its own

that is enslaving n' mellowing us

to follow Darwin's rule to survive

killing the raw innocence within

Hell! No, it’s in each one of us

to handle life the way we want to

with powers enough to believe

in worshiping a stone as an idol

or treating an idol as a stone!

Drive away the fears,

n' the abjectness that consumes

your whole n' derides you of emotions

let them away, let them go;

aspiring all the while...

to remain true to yourself,

to spread the power of love,

to do ya best in all that you do,

n' just be the REAL YOU..!!

Destiny

2011-12-09T05:17:00.000-08:00

What is destiny?

A pre-ordained diktat

of each one of our lives

written by the almighty

when we are born?

the result of actions

n' deeds done by us

in our everyday lives

when we live?

those who believe in the former

blame it for every outcome

when things go against their will

those who believe in the latter

know what needs to be done

n' feel familiar with the drill

it is better to not get embroiled

in this enmeshed world of destiny

n' live our lives ignorant of it

with grace, fortitude n' serenity!

Reflections of My Soul

2011-12-05T11:40:00.000-08:00

I lived all my life in pursuit of understanding

the true calling of the real ME

who could define the "I" in her

n' prepare myself for it's sojourn

at whichever point of life, I would discover it.

I used to think of this ~

as a journey within a journey

which had lessons to unlearn n' learn anew

a sojourn with it's own set of ~

trials n' tribulations, simplicity n' complexity,

temptation n' abstinence, a different world order

that would be my transcendence to my independence.

Interlude.

Today ~

a sudden transformation swayed thru' me

as I was enjoying the subtle pleasures

of a calm, breezy, dark, star n' moonlit sky

it began with a discerning feeling of

emptiness and nothingness within

as if layers of dust from the past

buried over time had been vacuumed

in one sweep motion by a gust of wind

n' I stood there experiencing a never before

felt sense of liberation from all around me

as I closed my eyes, I felt time pause

n' I saw a glowing light dawn within

to show me the crystal clear reflection

of my own pristine soul, even if for a moment
I saw it was free, spirited n' ‘twas untouched
floating in the mirth of sublime love in its realm
just like the way, I always felt it would be..!!

Intoxicated n' content with this new found peace in my life
after being thru' such blissful serene moments
intending to preserve this savoir-faire within me, forever
I already sense the evolution of a new ME...

Only Time

2011-11-30T06:27:00.000-08:00

Who can say...

why you go thru' whatever you do

en route this journey of life

thru' the highs n' lows

as the master is... only time..!!

Who can say...

which road should you choose

when you stand at crossroads

with no one to guide you

as the master is... only time..!!

Who can say...

when the time is ripe

for you to know the answers

that you seek so passionately

as the master is.... only time..!!

Who can say...

what's your true calling

to fulfill the reason why you're here

even when you are ready for the journey

as the master is.... only time..!!

Who can say...

if there is a realm there

beyond this astral orb here

that is filled with true sublime love

as the master... is only time..!!

Forever Oneness with Nature

2011-11-21T11:52:00.000-08:00

When the concrete jungle, rife with rules of its own,

makes me feel claustrophobic, fraying my nerves within,

where I fight for sustenance amongst the seas of people,

to earn my daily bread for my family n' seek a living;

I take the vagabond escape route to being amidst Nature...

to lose myself in its scenic beauty n' FREE the real ME,

even, if it is momentary, to touch, feel, live n' sensitize,

to infuse within me all that Nature has to offer from its womb;

be it the meadows that paint the vibrant colors from its canvas,

in my otherwise stark life colored only in black n' white;

or the wilderness that sing songs in rhythms of their own,

a melody, so pleasing that sets you grooving to its every beat;

the sunrise that breaks away from twilight to give me hope,

when I feel lost as I surmise the conflicts I face in my life;

the landscapes, seascapes n' mountainous intricate designs,

that leave me spell bound with its native forms n' splendours;

the rivers that flow endlessly remaining new all the while,

teaching me to remain unaffected by the disruptions in life;

the solace in the secluded spot over a rock with subtle winds,

that drives away all my agitation n' plunges me in reverie;

the sunset by the sea that usher-in respite, calming me down,

healing me from within n' resurging me with strength n' wisdom;

to collect myself n' my thoughts to get back the handle of my life,

treasuring every memory to continue my journey when I return back

to the man-made soulless surreal world that bewilders me each time

with the the circle of being enthralled in the charisma of Nature

coming to an undesirable end with the end of the brief sojourn

that brings me a step closer to Nature each time, I seek solace

in its resplendent world emblazoned with inexplicable bliss n' peace

a sacred communion with the eternal power that cannot be expressed

but only be felt from deep within the soul as Nature's powerful mysticism

creating firmly a sense of oneness between ME n' Mother Nature forever…

Twistedness

2011-11-11T15:20:00.000-08:00

Euphoric grandeur

ecstatic feelings

fuddled enamoured mind

with muddled reasoning

transcendental state of being

spell bound in jubilance

captivated in a world ablaze

with vivid resplendent delights

it's nothing but a world

of sheer twistedness..!!

Interlude

Wake up to the reality

that you had shunned

while you sojourned

in this dreamy extrinsic

world of alluring mirth

thoughts come n' thoughts go

making you wonder, what to do,

know that these surreal feelings

hold no resolute abiding grounds

with their frugal pretence..!!

Break FREE from this spell

of pseudo illusions n' twistedness

before they deport you

on an highway to hell

boldly leading you NOWHERE

ravaging your life, forever…

FREEDOM is just a thought away

embrace it in its full splendour

rebound back to your realm, your world

ONE that you know is your very own..!!

Circle of Life

2011-11-03T14:51:00.000-07:00

From the infinitesimal speck of moment,

when we are formed in an act of unision

of two souls embalmed in love

to the time we step in this world

we are protected in the safe haven of a womb

where we grow n' live a carefully nurtured life.

From hereon, in the midst of all expectations, and

boundaries set by our creators n' those around us

we embark on a remarkable journey ~

beginnin' by observin' n' understandin'

everythin' around us thru' our own senses

with the hand holding done by our protectors

obedient at first, rebellious later,

as we mature n' become consciously aware

of all that this universal nature unveils

before us to comprehend n' imbue what we want to.

From the various sojourns that we undertake

we experience the rise to unprecendented heights

or see us fallin' weak wayside, scathed, hurt

reboundin' at times wisened enough, to sail thru'

once again the high n' lows of this mystical life

that graviates us each time into its fold

be it with hope, faith, chaos, conflict,

love, loss, reality, success or gratitude

it's a vicious rigmarole of all elements

that lets us imbibe from the choices we make

in our expedition, to define the "I".

Enroute, most of us, even create a new life

just like how we arrived, givin' it our all

passin' on our refined learnings n' wisdom

yet, lettin' the new life take its own course

just like how we did when we were them

remaining resilient n' prayin' from deep within

that they get the best of everythin'.

Change which is the only constant factor in Life

forever keeps us on our toes to continually discover

hidden facets within us, creatin' new dimensions,

with an unwaverin' will n' extended endurance powers,

which we thought never existed within us,

when we think of givin' it all up when at the edge

only to rediscover new aspects of livin' Life

to the fullest, in a realm of our own

when we've found our true callin' within

before the rhytmic beat of our heart stops beatin'

n' we embrace the invincible, inevitable death.

Just like the beautiful seasons of nature

that follow each other in a circle

Such is Life ~

a path unfoldin' the mysteries

that Life beholds for each one of us

in a circle, The Circle of Life..!!

FREE Spirit… that’s ME..!!

2011-10-30T12:55:00.000-07:00

Enroute the journey of life...
She has been thru' path's that have ~
yanked her away from her fetish for freedom,
her zest for carefree life, her innocence,
binding her to forbidden rules relatively unknown,
wadin' her thru' stumbling blocks that ripped her apart,
enclosing her on, in boundless dreaded fear n' despair,
makin' her stay awake thru' dark nights cryin' silent tears,
havin' been thrown in perpetually void black holes,
that crushed n' shattered her while consuming her whole!!

But,
the deed was done only on her physical existence
for they were not aware of her real presence,
they thought they were seein' her fragmented, when
'twas she who was showin' em what she wanted em to see,
sheer mind games 'twas, till she was ready to bounce back,
n' face head on, the new barricaded set of attacks,
with renewed vigor n' strength within, to hold on,
all the while, waitin' for the time to be just right,
to unveil the real HER - her soul n' spirit with pride!!

She is an untouched FREE spirit n' soul ~
who has risen from her own ash-fill...
like a phoenix to soar new dimensional heights,
over every sea, ocean, mountain, chasm n' tide,
where over every predicament, it is HOPE that abides!!

Her pristine soul is radiant with true love ~
flowin' in abundance, replenishin' each time,
as need be, to sow seeds of peace, bliss n' harmony,
her spirit runs carefree thru' the prying winds, rain,
sunshine, sunset, twilight n' the starry moon lit sky,
who caress her, enliven her n' enthrall her FREE spirit,
liberating the shielded child-woman who yearned all along
to live in a world where innocence is conserved n' Life calls
...for this is the only world where she truly belongs!!

I know all of this of her is true
for that SHE is ME ~
I am the FREE spirit n' soul
who set the I, ME n' MYSELF within me FREE
to be ONE with the universe n' face my fate n' destiny
as such, that from now on I'll live every moment carefree...

Happy Diwali

2011-10-24T07:13:00.000-07:00

As the sensitizing scent of flowers fills the air

n' the vibrant colours of the rangoli sets in the fanfare

as the sky gets sprayed with exploding luminescent lights

from the crackers that are lit with such pure delight

Such is the spirit of DIWALI ~

that it ushers in happiness n' joys in all our lives

Numbness

2011-10-21T12:53:00.000-07:00

in the depth of besieged unusual silence

all she was aware was of her "existence"

that she was alive, that she was breathin'

when everythin' around her was collapsin'

all she saw was an endless tunnel ahead

with perpetual blackness widespread

undesired, was such a soulless journey

that made her life rampant with drudgery

her mind over time had turned out to be stoic

akin to her once carefree life that was now rustic

her lovin' heart had become unyieldingly cold

for her endurance had reached its set threshold

she seemed to be overpowered n' engulfed

with a strange profound feelin' of numbness

such sinewy, gritty n' scary was it's grasp

that she let it crush n' shatter her from inside

will she thwart this peril that's breakin' her apart?

will she let her emotions gain ingress into her heart?

will this eerie numbness destroy her pristine soul?

will she bounce back once more to be her spirited whole?
