Maybe…

Maybe I’m trying too hard sometimes…

To make myself feel better,
despite the awkward situations around me.

To run away from the real world,
to a place where I find my very own comfort zone.

To NOT accept the things as they are,
because of a fear of losing them.

To ignore the reality of the moment,
because of being too afraid of getting hurt.

To breathe past the tears,
because I know if I start crying now, I may never stop.

To let my fears take control of my thoughts,
I don’t wanna be weak.

All this “trying”,
these situations defying,
drains me at some point,
uncertainty,
blurry,
out of control,
it all gets.
Maybe for once,
only if I let go of ‘me’,
surrender to my emotions,
just for once,
I may find that peace,
I’m yearning for,
Maybe…

    Hurrray!!!! Was going to come searching for you on Facebook.
    I’ve been off for a while just got back and didn’t really see you around, but now.
    Now, MAYBE… If you let go of ‘you’ and let your LQ(love quotient)…take charge…you’ll find yourself soaring in an unexplainable level of tranquility.
    I’ve missed your posts, Rupali.

      Aww, Cynthia! Your words…they always soothe me. Sorry, I was a little occupied these days, but never gone. 😊 And yes even I tried searching you on facebook but couldn’t find you. I’m Rupali Goyal, Hisar, Haryana, India. Do search once again and send me a request. Would love it.! ☺

    First of all, this is a very good poem with such depth and meaning! Second, you have a beautiful heart (longing to grow and care)… Third, it is definitely good to cry for you will find some healing on the inside and room for more of love to take its place. Fourth, it is alright to be weak for then you may just find the One who is strong to hold you or even carry you until you’re able to stand and walk again… Yes, there is peace to find…

    Very touching poem Rupali… yes I agree… More you love more you cry…but that doesn’t stop you from being you.Solution for everything is “acceptance” of things, however harsh they are. Simply no point trying to change something out of your control..
    Cheers to you…

        Simply response to your ending words.

        “Maybe for once,
        only if I let go of ‘me’,
        surrender to my emotions,
        just for once,
        I may find that peace,

        Does that make it clear for you? Didn’t mean to be abstruse. 😳
