A Little Wisdom For Our Pains Poem by Kiran Pillai

Lessons for happiness are delivered
Through ages of wisdom by sages
Man has all answers to live by
Still, we suffer too hard. Why the pain?

Religion and Spirituality were giving answers
From the time man spoke languages
Still, we suffer hard. This is the shame.
We have all answers that we really need.

The culture of searching for truth is desirable.
We will know what we really require in life
This truth is the key reason we incarnated
Still we forget all and choose to suffer endlessly!

At times, all we need is to lead the sufferers.
Wise ones have been guiding us from pain.
At times, we feel we should guide with little wisdom!
The little wisdom we gained from living this life.

I may not lead a whole society. Who am I anyways?
Still, I could lead my family and few that come to me.
Lead them to a place of little peace and happiness.
Just a little word to loosen the pain a little.

Pain - a funny weight we carry in our hearts.
Drop it and smash that weight on the ground.
Be free and be light. But, we still carry this.
World tell us this is responsibility somehow!

We have all been fooled by need to be responsible.
And carry loads on ourselves to pain and death.
Just a little freedom will help us all. Wisdom!
It is wisdom that help us take our worldly roles.

Drop all your pain. They will be taken care of.
But, does that hurt your sense of responsibility somehow?
Maybe we have been misguided by world around.
All we need is a little wisdom for this pain!
