SADNESSA Poem by Asra Hakak''it feels like home now''Sometimes sadness pays me a visit, out the blue, As a river, it floods me and there's nothing I can do. It surges and pulses around my thoughts, like stones, Its an unstoppable force & makes its presence known. I treat it with the kindness I can muster up I sit quitely, and ask myself, 'What's up?', With the light of my awareness, it suddenly shimmers, And what was a flood is back into a gentle river. It washes my soul, it cleans away the dust It polishes my being,taking away the rust I sit here, in my chair and realize what has happened Sadness came...but I no longer feel saddned, There's beauty in the pain and magic in the madness, And...There'a a touch of joy in the visits by sadness. © 2015 Asra Hakak |
