The choice

A random thought after watching the documentary 'Rubaru Roshni'.

Funny, how we let our emotions sink.

Atleast how we let the mind think.

Joy, sadness, hatred, gratitude and despise.

Uncontrolled in many, but charted by the wise.

How will the wounds heal,

If you won't let the ego peel.

Replaying the long gone in your head,

Repeating the words that have been said.

How can I be treated that way?

How come I always have no say? 

My thoughts and actions, no value they bear?

I seek revenge, how they dare!

Stop. Look within you.

Address the happiness that's due.

Forgive for your peace, if not for others.

It's your mind which nurtures lifes' joyful feathers.
