62. Poem
In the dead silence of the night
I can hear the voice of my mind
It tells me, to be me
No matter how tiring things be
Staying happy in my cosy corner
Neither struggling nor surviving
Simply living life, happily
We emerge from the ashes
Like a smokeless burning wood
Our problems of life emerges
Leaving us fighting petty battles
Exhausted and vanquished
The bitter truth still surpassing
Hope is the weapon that does away
All the battling and Carrying
Loads of hurtful past
Making a way to a brighter tomorrow
I'm here
Where no one's there
All around PIN drop silence
Working it's way up
From my bones to my soul
Filling deep love and affection
Breaking free from useless ties
That are harmless but dangerous
Corrupts the heart and Fills it up with sorrows
That was a day gone by with efforts to seek
A newer day in a place I wanted to be
Few more breaths left for me
I've dreams to live and weave
Packing up all my desires and wishes
Taking them along with me
Into a newer realm of peace
Where for the rest of my life
I wish to live and die
Never returning to this
Where I almost lost myself
Thanking God And my love
For keeping my soul fresh and safe
Stainless and spotless
From the darkness of Where I was
Now silence Fills up this place
And I'm moving ahead of time
Discovering a divine way
That helps me live and thrive
For the rest of my beautiful life

Dream the dream
hope can guide
God will love
darkness leave behind.
