Strength is not holding back tears.
Strength is acknowledging tears.
Courage is not being without fear.
Courage is being despite fear.
Sometimes words fail, and tears
speak very loud, and very clear.
Emotions are natural.
The shower of tears,
the thunder of laughter,
all simply natural.
Crying is okay; it is not at all wrong.
Don't think that those who never cry are strong.
And don't consider yourself a weakling if you cry.
Hold no fears; shed those tears; you will not die.
Love the first segment :))

SO DAMN TRUE! Pouring out our emotions is not a crime...it's natural and it should flow...hiding ur true self from others in order to look strong is no good for u...Cry if u must, fear if u should, just let it all out!
Wonderful job!
Keshi.

hi pradeep
ReplyDeletei'm addicted to your way of writing and the expression that you inject whilst producing an articulate yet convicing post!

ReplyDeletecourage is being despite fear..i like this line a lot..
As they say in Texas when someone wholeheartedly agrees --
ReplyDelete"Amen to that!"
hi from a passerby...
ReplyDeletewas indeed passingby
one to thunder
with laughter, but
thinking today
at times one needs
a shower
of tears without fears.
thanks.
"Courage is being despite fear."
ReplyDelete-simply beautiful. the whole poem is beautifully written. one of the most inspiring piece of work.
I am simply overwhelmed by the honest reactions to this post. :)
ReplyDeleteNavin, that is a difficult question to answer. I believe expression just finds way - writing, music, painting, singing - it just finds way.
thank you prady. this poem carried me through the weekend when i needed to hear it.
