Writing On The Walls Poem by Punamjyoti Dessai

Loud and graphic
Shouting out for attention
I ignore the writing on the walls of my Soul.

Colours vividly reminding of stories
That haunt the halls of those rooms

Who can boast of this art
Gruesome and yet dignified
Scratching away at the emotions
In the wee hours of the dark nights.

Sometimes neurotic
Sometimes hopeful
Many times passionate
Memories resound from their depths
Clanging and blasting
Into the silence that my soul resonates.

Can silence be loud
Asks my mind
To the weathered tattered soul
Searching for an acceptable response
My soul sits in a transcedental state.


PS: Rise above your scars and tell your story. Mine is a beautiful stained glass.

Being PU 💕
