Why do we feel hurt,
By words someone has spoken…
Where do we feel it and where does it pain??
Where do the tears flow from ??
The wounds and the scars of the older wounds aching and hurting,
Are intensely etched and ingrained,
Somewhere in the deep crevices of our being…
The words are spoken arrows,
Hitting the target of the concentric circles, of the emotional dart board,
Bringing out the hidden emotions of anger, sadness and frustrations to the brink,
To ooze out of us.
We demand an apology, and rightly so..
Lest, to satisfy our ego,
But, my dear friends, Do you think that’s the way to go??
Apology, is a must,
Not from the person who shot arrows of words on us,
But from ourselves to US,
For having suppressed the emotion within and for blaming it outside of us.
A big shout out of Thank You to the person who speaks thus,
To help trigger the release of emotion buried within us,
To bring about the emotional upheaval from within,
To facilitate our true healing !!
Nice one

Absolutely true poetic words penned, Deepika and yes one has to let go for their own sake and why let out anger and hurt others with harsh voice and in return hurt ourselves too.

Yes Kamal. I’ve often noticed, we assume we are hurt by others, but actually, it is due to some incompletions within us and we need to work on it ourselves. Thanks Kamal !!

The wounds and the scars of the older wounds aching and hurting. I couldn’t understand this line.
wounds of the older wounds doesn’t seem right to me. May be it’s just me. Can you explain it? The rest of the poem is really good.

It’s not wounds of the older wounds…
I mean it’s the latest wound which has erupted and the various scars of older wounds which we are carrying from prior…
Hope I have been able to explain…
Thanks a lot for going through. 🙏
