Beauty vs. Worth

A friend drops by my house,
goes to my table and points
at a painting – The curly hair
do not look beautiful on this girl,
consider taking the painting down.

We will not find everything appealing to our eyes,
and we will not satisfy our ears with every voice.
This does not take away from its worth.
So might as well not look and hear
if we cannot discern worth from the beauty.

PS: Again, we are trying out something different and hope you guys like it.

To Trust Someone…

Trust is a five letter word
So beautiful, so fragile
Like growing a flower in the heart
Hoping it would bloom
Without making our heart bleed
So be careful when planting this flower of trust

To trust someone is like giving a piece of our heart
Something so precious and fragile
Hoping it would be safe there
So don’t make the mistake of breaking someone’s trust

When trust shatters
It does not cause a bruise on the skin
The sharp fragments flow along the blood
Tearing up every bit of us from inside
Making it almost impossible to trust someone again cause
The fragments of shattered glass are impossible to put together

They will find it…

I will tell you all about it
Next time, maybe
You are too young right now
Wait for the next time
I will handle the situation better
You next time
Their child kept sliding further away
Leaving the mountain of fake promises
Silence filled the space between them.

The Child keeps waiting and waiting
For the next time to come,
Suppressing the urge to know
Deep within his/her heart.
They let them drown in the ocean of confusion.
They let their soul burn in the fire of a wait.
They soak their pillows with tears of sadness.
One day, when their bones could not bear the weight of confusion and
Their brain exploded from the headache of unanswered questions.
That day, they said to themselves that
They will not leave another question unanswered
But satisfy their hunger on their own.
Next time for sure.

Let them fly/try…

There comes a time when you have to
Let your kids go and let them face the reality
Just like a baby bird will have to
Leave the nest and learn to fly on its own.

You cannot make their decisions for them
And you cannot expect them to return.
However, you can hope that
Their path of life is filled with happiness
Due to the lessons you have taught them
Before letting them march their own journey.
