Void Poem by Richa Tiwari Joshi

The void in my heart engulfs my being in its soft grey clouds and bleak light of hope dims even further..
I look around and the life suddenly seems like a neverending drama, where i am still waiting to play my role,
I am waiting since eternity and this plays still goes on,
people come, act and go, they push me and pass by and i just wait till i come again in a new costume to play it all over again...
I strecth my hand and fell down on my bleeding knees, i lay still, muster all the courage i have, all the light i have and try to take one step and then two, then this wave of nostalgia puts me back to the times when i laughed so hard that my stomach ached, when i saw glimmer in my eyes, everytime i looked at the reflection
it might sound gloomy, it might not even sound very poetic but it is the blunt naked sadness which is trying to win over me..
I always wished that a dreamy night will save me and take me over to the clouds and this grey misty sadness will vanish somehow...
I close my eyes and there i see myself, beautiful and radiant with the glow of divine love...that angelic look on my face, my carefree laughter and the Lord of love holding my hands whirling the world around me..the soft black curls of hair toss over and i am simply happy, playing my role, I AM LOVE, MADE OF LOVE, i am no longer bleeding, my feet aren't heavy and that grey misty void has lifted away from my heart and i am filled with a soft glowing white light of Love and blessing of my Lord.
