Happy Diwali and Saal Mubarak to all my readers! Hope you all have had a wonderful festive period.

In my everso random style a little  poem for you all – enjoy!

 

Why are you so scared to take my hand?

I know you’ve been hurt

But so have I

Why

Oh why?

 

Even if you accidentally took my hand

Would you trust me?

Do I look like the type that would hurt you?

Or do you think I would walk away

 

You carry that crib in your heart; I’ll help you with it

Embrace with my soul

Catch if it falls

Idolise just like you

 

Looking ahead

I need to see a path

Which one to take

Where does the road lay?

 

But you don’t know

So I can’t do this

Be hurt again

Be made to feel I am in the wrong again

 

Maybe I just need to say goodbye

Love maybe will continue to elude me

Say what you mean

Say what you feel.
