Re-Discovering Self

I thought

I'd forgotten love

None the less

I thought I'd forgotten myself.

The thunderstorm surging outside

Reminds me the stillness inside.

And when I think of it

'M shocked to realise

I've kept myself closed

Finding myself padlocked on the road of life.

I face the thunderstorm.

I ask it-"What can I do to undo the past?"

It roars.

I get my answer.

I turn to face the 'inside'

I pick the brush that has dried over the year

I choose Red, Green and Blue

I try to shape my thoughts into it

'Not bad'- I think

And another realisation dawns

What I've missed of all

The colors!

I make colors now

Vibrant-Violet.

Soft- Mauve.

Harsh- Forest green.

Adventure- Turquoise.

The tree of life,

full of little lives,

each lived one at a time.

The ocean of love,

full with drops of love,

each drunk at a time.

The mountain of passion,

where the river flows

making its way through trees

to join the ocean.

I Re-Discover the lost self

In doing so I learn

What 'Re-Birth' is all about.

'M born

AGAIN.
