Poetry

Poetry - we have all heard this word. But do we know what exactly does this six letter word mean? Is it just a few lines or verses or words that happen to rhyme? Do all poems rhyme? Are poems a mere piece of words or inspiration, that one learns/gets from his/ her surroundings? Are they reality based or a piece of fiction? Who decides if poems are good or bad?

Just take a moment and think about it.

I think poetry is something that can be said or written in very few lines, but they say so much more! They manage to explain everything, from the complexities of the universe to the blissful feeling of love to the feeling of  peacefulness when you hold a new born baby in your hands for the very first time, in the most simplest way.

I do believe that poetry is a spontaneous overflow of feelings. All the emotions like- love, hate, jealously, happiness, sadness, etc are transferred into words, and those words make sentences, and those sentences make marvelous poetry. Everything you feel gets converted into lines.

You can write thousands of pages and books about what you feel and sometimes it still doesn’t manage to get the message across. But most of the times, just a few lines can do the deed. Poetry teaches us that “Little is in fact more!”

You don’t need to be a Shakespeare to write great poetry, you just have to write what comes to your heart and mind. And that’s the best thing about poetry.

The first poem I ever wrote was when I was 18 yrs old and it was for my Nani. It goes like this :

The Lost Soul

‘And now I am left

With nothing but misery

As I see the lifeless cadaver of someone I adore

My home is no longer a home

It’s just a house

Of a lost soul’

Theme of the week:   Have you ever written poetry? What was your first poem called? Do you believe that poetry is really a 'spontaneous overflow of powerful feelings'? #WritingPoetry #IndiSpire

I know a guy.
who's voice is of angels,

too perfect for this earth.

who's voice could make
even the most stubborn

flowers bloom early.

who's voice is the rising sun
and I can’t wait to wake up.

yes I do like music and catchy tunes
but the song that is in his voice

will always be my most favourite one. 

Happy 22nd And 8 month Birthday!   ♥

I love you till ∞ !

The Best Her.

I tried something different :) I hope you like it.

I have this one friend
that wishes she was beautiful,
that wishes she was skinny,
that wishes she was funny.
she always wants to be her or her or her
and I just want to shake her shoulders and scream
that I’d much rather want her be herself.
Because it's the best her their is.

You are beautiful

"In all of my living 

you are the 

most beautiful thing 

I have ever owned";

I said to him softly

in a way 

I wanted him 

to not only hear it,

but understand it

"Why? 

I just don't

understand,

Why?"

He replied,

like he always did.

"You aren't like the rest,

you know this.

You just don't know, 

that you know about out it.

You are the kind

of beautiful 

that is unaware of its beauty.

And I know that guys

aren't supposed to be 

beautiful.

But you are.

You are beautiful.

The kind of beauty 

that exists 

in the world,

quietly filling hollow spaces 

of the earth 

with its silence

Not many humans 

understand it,

or see it,

or even take the time to even look for it,

but its there.

It is there,

and it breathes 

against my face like 

the the most beautiful 

thing that will ever 

live in this world."

You made it!

 I feel a little extra motivational today, so here you go :) 

Dear You,

Whoever you are,

However you got here,

This is exactly where you are supposed to be,

This moment has waited it's whole life for you,

This moment is your lover; And you are a soldier come home Baby,

And it's over,

You don't need to suffer anymore.

Dear You,

This moment is a surprise party,

You're both hiding in the dark and walking through the door,

This moment is Hallelujah

This moment is your permission slip,

To finally open that love letter you've been hiding from yourself,

The one you wrote when you were little,

when you still danced like a sparkler at dusk,

Do you remember the moment you realized; they were watching,

When you became ashamed of how much light you were holding,

when you first learned how to un-love yourself.

Dear you,

The word today means Amen in every language,

Today we made it,

Today I'm gonna love you,

Today, we made it!

Dear You,

And I have always meant you!

nothing would be the same if you did not exist!

You, who were once as small as bokeh,

nothing would be the same if you did not exist!

You, whose voice is someone's favorite voice,

Someone's favorite face to wake up to,
nothing would be the same if you did not exist!

You the lantern in the night,

who offers not the way home, but the courage to travel farther into the dark

Dear You,

You, the person who does not let fear ration your love,

You, the friend, the sacred chorus of how can i help you,

who have felt more numb than holy,

more cracked that mosache

who have know the tiles of your bathroom by heart,

 you, who have forgotten what makes you worth it,

You the forgiven, the forgiver, Who belongs right here in this moment,

You, this clump of cells,

this happy explosion that happened to start breathing by the grace of what ever is after you

You got here!

You made it!

This whole way!

Through the nights that swallowed you whole!

The mornings that arrived in pieces

The scare, the lies, the doubt, the fear, the hurt

The hurt; the hurt is over today!

You made it,

You're here.

In this moment.

Shining brighter than a star.

And I promise you,

The fight was worth it,

The wait was worth it.

It's your time to be awesome now.

So, make the most of this moment.

Because,you earned it.

Today, you made it,

Today,

Here,

You made it.
