The Bright Light
I decided to write a poem honouring someone special and wise in my life. They struggle to read the language I usually write in and I struggle to write in the language they are comfortable in but I tried to translate it for them . This is just a small gesture of mine to show them how much they mean to me, how much they mean to many people in their life. I know it isn't as long as my normal poems
But sometimes while adding too many words we might loose the whole point of why we are writing in the first place.That is why it is small and sweet, just like them . So here it goes..
The Bright Light
The night sky falls down on her ,
Trying to break her down,
But yet she is the light of the night.
She glows and shines, fills the air with kinda light, that cannot be mirrored .
A light that is so strong that always shines.
A rare light that helps many.
One wonders how she came to exist,
One wonders how she became this bright light.
But a real poet knows that she is the light.
It was her , before she knew it .
Fools may dim her light,
But in their childish sense, forget to realise,
They are strengthening her.
Making her glow brighter with every damage .
Thank You 💓
