Poem : 🌷 One Being D Ocean...
Poetess : Tilottama Vijay Lele
D only constant factor is d "change"
World changes fast, it appears strange
Sometimes d Heart grows silently...
N d World thinks nothing is changing...
D important transformations in life,
R often d ones no one else can see.
We believe in d expression of eyes
More than d facial expression in smiles.
Smiles can be practiced...
They appear even when One is tired,
When they've something heavy inside,
Eyes reveal d storms people try to hide.
Every person feels like an ocean...
Roaring at d same time storing emotions
Some stand calmly on d surface,
Letting others see only d waves...
Some protect their depths so carefully
That no one can dive beneath cleverly
N some carry entire storms quietly,
Pretending like still Waters, deceptively
To Understand people, is like standing...
At d shore of an ocean n losing mind...
Although listening, observing n waiting.
Over time, this habit isn't of our choosing
We notice things before they're spoken.
L'il pause in voice or a forced expression
D way someone suddenly becomes quiet
When a certain topic appears to threat
It's strange how much a quiet person
Says without saying anything to anyone
N perhaps becuz of this, we slowly
Become One who understands easily
We understand when someone is distant,
When someone is confused n reluctant
When One can't explain own feelings,
Understanding is instinctive thinking
Those who understand d most,
R d ones who remain d least understood.
Calm is not always peace but patience.
Silence is d place for waiting emotions
Der R days when we laugh with people,
Moving through d day without trouble
As if all inside us is perfectly arranged.
N yet Der's disturbance in d Mind...
Der R thoughts, still lingering around,
Looking for a place to settle or rebound...
D biggest changes happen in silence.
It gives them unique strength n resilience
Quiet heart carries d richest inner world
Hoping One'll notice d silence they hold
N Der's a strange irony...
We all have quite a similar life story...
Different stories, different faces,
But carry Within same kinds of a pains...
Yet we still don’t understand each other.
N live with aloofness altogether...
Everyone's busy fighting own battles
Feelings R deeper to explain with words
Still when a small wish appears,
That someone'll notice quietness of us
Not to analyze or fix them,
But simply to acknowledge them.
That's why people search for connection
D way travelers search for illumination
Not because they want attention,
But because they want recognition.
Someone who'll hear d noise of a mind
Which is thinking, feeling n helping kind
Until life continues in it's quiet rhythm
Listening-understanding d pattern…
D ability to truly hear someone else,
Is d gentlest form of love, that exists.
N at last, survival is d main real story...
Struggles R only a few chapters of it...
Any storm always scares us at first,
It's noise is loud n it's winds R fierce.
But after some time that same storm,
Initiates n wakes up something inside us
D Power, which is a kind of quiet strength
That keeps us up when d heart feels tired
That's what being human really means.
To carry sadness, hope both at same time
An Understanding-One being d Ocean,
They’ll unite to become d Mightiest ONE
