swimming in the ocean of pain i struggle
to reach the coast of happiness
drowning in the waves of memory
i reach the surface to acknowledge
only to be drenched by agony
a shaft comes towards me to grab
it has the boards of forgiveness
i scramble myself up
before i know i am on the land of love
basking in the rays of bliss
When you reach a coast like that you know it's worth the hardships to get there..
ReplyDeleteit is nice to find that rescue...especially when you feel yourself going under in that sea of agony...which very could be our world with as much misery as it is in today....
ReplyDeleteLife is all about learning to surf these waves. Good one.
ReplyDeletedrowning in the waves of memory... that is a common cause of death for the inner self... nice write.
ReplyDeletestruggling in the sea of pain..I think we all have at one time swam in that sea..but, nice to find the land of love..
ReplyDeleteI like how "boards of forgiveness" sounds. The idea it conveys to me is that of a specific, bounded forgiveness, no more no less than the amount needed.
ReplyDeleteSo beautiful. Forgiveness is so important to happiness. Just a note, Arathi, I couldn't read your post on Joy--the font color was so light and I have some visual problems. Sorry.
