Getting here , opened eye
I started it with my cry
Without knowing for whom and why
Looked for him in everything passing by
Following wishes, chasing dreams
Health and comfort,loads of things
Couldn’t quiet inner screams
Deep inside rustled unfolded means
My heart sang nurtured with love
Soul soaring triumphant dove
But Pulling strings from above
Someone kept testing my nerve
Holding me back from worldly games
Detaching from all my claims
Pushing into thoughts insane
Reconsidering “loss and gain “
Asking for , look more deep
Hidden Truths if I can seek
Turning world to place so bleak
What have I done to deserve this cheat
Why created this puzzling place
Giving everything a crazy pace
This emptiness,what is this space
Can I fill it by running an endless race ?
Overwhelmed by too much query
Ego crumbled with fear and fury
I kept walking through places and seasons
With obvious existence and unknown reason
Ages went by ,I was old and weak
My body torn and soul to bleed
Fell of ground with breath just last
Saw drop of light spreading so vast
Diminishing the universes whole
Making everything bright and bold
Liberating from the cage of anxiety
Dissolving me ,into its entirety !

Dear Baili, once more, your poem expresses attentively the enigma our human life is. Lucky those who at least in the end get a sense of it's mysteries!
ReplyDeleteIt's always a joy to read your poems and this morning your post gave me a moment of reflection and serenity.
Thank you also for your latest comment on my blog. It's very interesting to read about the life in a country with the geography and climate so different from mine.
Big hugs from Finland! Stay well!
Dear friend Sara♥️
DeleteIt’s please to hear from you always!
Many thanks for strengthening words! They are enormous support to my heart π₯Ή
Life used to be very simple and beautiful for me,but time revealed that it was only because of the lack of my knowledge. No matter how much you try to keep things straight and simple, I can see with so much knowledge about what Is happening around doesn’t allow one to live peacefully. Other people’s suffering break our heart . Our struggles to make sense of this seems circular .
What gives little peace to mind is faith and hope that there is Divine Force governing everything behind the curtain and even though we are unable to reach desired conclusions still a feeling of “ connection “ to that force or our origin is only thing bring us some relief and strength to keep moving !
Dear Sara ,learning that you live in Finland who is happiest place on earth makes me happy too ,I hope your weather is lush and beautiful these days.
Hugs and best wishes to you tooπ♥️

DeleteThere is something deeply honest about this poem because it reflects the struggle many people quietly carry while searching for meaning, peace, and closeness to God. I especially like how the ending shifts from heaviness into light because it gives the whole piece a sense of surrender and release rather than despair. The lines about the ego crumbling and the soul continuing to walk through seasons feel very reflective and emotionally mature. Poetry like this becomes powerful when it comes from lived feeling rather than trying too hard to impress. I recently shared a new post on my blog too and would be happy if you stopped by to read it www.melodyjacob.com
ReplyDeleteBeautiful, stirring poem Baili.
ReplyDeleteSweet friend Melody!
ReplyDeleteHeartfelt thanks for your beautiful and encouraging words π
Hearing such positive words from you is such a privilege because I myself am huge fan of your way of writing !
It means me happy that your uncle of poem is deep and powerful.
I have been writing poetry since I was six years old and I didn’t know what it was really. Though it was in Urdu language. Since I blog now I try to write in English and it brings me peace and joy when my simple poems are liked and read by people who are far better than me on every aspect of life including their underlying of life and it’s expressions manifested in various forms of art . I find it very uplifting! So thank you again for your generosity my friend!
Reading your posts is very helpful,inspiring and beautiful. I will visit you asap inshallah ♥️π
Baili, I reread this poem several times because it touched on so many things that you have shared in your posts about your feelings. I believe that many of the words you wrote are what many are feeling about the world and our place in it At times, we may feel helpless and lost, but then we are lifted up by a higher force. Thank you, my friend for once again sharing your talent.
ReplyDeleteDear friend Dorothy !
ReplyDeleteThanks for your generous words!
They have healing and uplifting energy ππ₯Ή
I agree that the world we are living is causing so much anxiety and pain to sensitive people , despite things are not that bad for them suffering of people feel heartbreaking and sad . Such circumstances affect our emotions intensely and whatever art is way to speak mind shows how darkness of the world has influenced them.
I am grateful for faith is my strength and keeps me going,gives hope that picture of this existence is created with two sides and I have to learn to keep focus on bright side no matter what !
It delivers joy to my heart my friend that you found my poem nice and meaningful π♥️
You have beautifully captured human struggle, the tension between the loud distractions of the physical world and the quiet, often painful pulling of the soul toward something deeper. The line about "reconsidering loss and gain" hits home because that shift in perspective usually requires us to go through a bit of darkness first.
