When We Grow Up...

Whenever we grow,
We tend to feel it,
As a young seed must feel the weight
And inertia of the earth
As it seeks to break out of its shell
On its way to becoming a plant.
Often the feeling is anything but pleasant.
But what is most unpleasant is
The not knowing what is happening.
Those long periods when something
Inside ourselves seems to be waiting,
Holding its breath,
Unsure about what the next step should be,
Eventually become the periods we wait for,
For it is in those periods that we realize
That we are being prepared
For the next phase of our life and that,
In all probability,
A new level of the personality
Is about to be revealed....
So;
Some periods of our growth
Are so confusing,
That we don’t even recognize
That growth is happening.
We may feel hostile or angry or weepy
And hysterical,
Or we may feel depressed.
It would never occur to us,
Unless we stumbled on a book
Or a person who explained to us,
That we were in fact in the process
Of change,
Of actually becoming larger,
Spiritually, than we were before...

Rain ☔

Rain makes me feel less alone...
Rain is a cloud- falling apart,
And pouring its shattered pieces
Down on top of you...
It makes me feel good to know
That I'm not the only thing that falls apart...
It makes me feel better
To know that im not the only one
But there are other things in nature
That shatter & falls apart...

Worst Years of My Life

"First Year was the worst,"
"And The Second Year... It was the worst too...
The Third,  Final, Next Years; I didn't enjoy at all.
After that I went into a bit of a decline...
I gave up on all hopes
And i gave up on my life itself
Knowing that,
Even worse years are yet to come🖕
