After posting some of my poems
it is not hard to figure out
that tears are almost the only topic
where I can write about

Stones to stumble over
a lake of unshed tears
all the pieces of my heart
and my greatest fears

I had to climb walls
asking someone: “Will you”
stranded on the shores of time
before I got the flu

It took some wings of passion
and a guiding hand
to find one special moment
on some in between land

All this together… I have to admit
is a bit too much
and I don’t want you to think
that this is typical Dutch

So I wrote this poem today
just to let you see
that beyond those tears
hides a happy me!!!

Neeraja, do let that side of you come out...
for your prayers will one day be answered,
and you will wonder then, why all of the spent tears...

Honey - I am in a philosophical mood today, and take this from one who knows.  A very short statement of truth!
In order to appreciate everything in life, we have to experience the opposite.
To appreciate happiness therefore we have had to be sad, and the sadder we have been, the more of a contrast the happiness becomes.
Hope this makes sense - I know what I mean, do you?

Neeraja,
having been in the veil of tears, I do understand that it is possible to find the happy self within, you wrote about this so well *HuGS*

Here in the midst of my lonely abyss, a single joy I find...your presence in my mind.  Unknown

When your life is full of tearful things, this is what you write about. If your life is full of happy things, you write about this too. Either way, it is good to write. And, we will be hear to read it all.

Neeraja, it doesn't matter if they are words of sadness or happiness....so long as you let them flow naturally from your heart.  You've been doing great.

Actually... I like my "low" state of mind... I am more creative... but ofcourse I need the happy state of mind for the balance... as long there is balance... there is nothing to worry about... I just wrote this poem to let you know that I am not a sad person... I am happy!!!  But I have my moments... like all of you... smile...
