Day 18 #OctPoWriMO2020
One of the ways that works for me to process my feelings is decoration , be it decorating my room, or my work station or my drawing, I feel rejuvenated once I am done with it.This helps me to relax and breathe in positivity. My poem for today is based on this journey of falling into the pit of darkness, then clinging on to the light of hope through creativity and then overcoming the darkness with happiness and all that is positive.

From Darkness to Light ( The title probably is repetitive, but I find it most suitable so am using it again)
It seems that the nimbus clouds will last forever
Casting a dark spell over here and yonder
The faint streak of Sunlight trying to pierce through
The tiny crack amidst the gloomy conglomeration
But failing, every time
Overwhelmed my heart wilts like the rose petals
From a plucked bloom, separated from its roots
The darkness is unbearable, I need some light!
I moved, Danced, Decorated my little space
I breathed freely after a long time!
Colors, sequins, pearls, streamers, shining bright
Healed my wounded feelings
I felt Alive!
Soon it started raining, heavily for a long time
Big drops of rain kissed the sad surface
Caressing with a healing touch
“The Rainbow will soon spread across the horizon”
They Promised in unison
The roads lay empty, dark and forlorn
As raindrops cleansed all that is sad and unpleasant
The clouds cleared, bid farewell
After an extended period of stay
The morning next did not come alone
For the promised Rainbow made a grand appearance
Glittering, shining , giving Hope
To many a grieving soul
Get up, Start Afresh
It’s reboot time
Live and Thrive!
I actually like cloudy days. I sometimes feel like I'm the only person who does. But I like rainbows too.
