MINDFUL THOUGHTS

 

Does my heart have the space,

to hold the grief which subverts me?

Do my shoulders have,

the power to hold the burden,

which seems to be weighing down on me?

The most frequent thoughts,

which seem to occur in each human mind.

Knowing we come in this world with nothing,

and we leave with nothing,

yet seeking worldly treasures,

seem to be an inseparable part of life.

Why do we say words,

which do not portray us?

Why do we seem to judge people,

when we ourselves seem to,

lack the so called perfection?

How do we have the audacity,

to bully someone,

when our darkest secret,

are hidden deep within us?

Why do we have to change ourselves,

to be loved by someone,

when our true selves,

can bring us together with our true love?

Why have we created the word racism,

when black and white were meant to be nature ‘s own colors?

When has the human mind taken such a drastic turn,

that we seem to stab a wound,

in the back of our own loved ones?

The answers to these thoughts lie miles away,

and everyday they seem to move a distant away.

Yet no man has never thought ,

to walk in its wake.

for we call this human nature,

when certainly man was never meant to be that way.
