" TIme Heals"

Time heals they say

But I ask, does it?

Does it heal your hurt or make you forget?

Does it help you past your grief (or) just bundle it in a shallow grave?

Does it make you see and sort your feelings (or) simply push them under the rug?

Stupid you are, if you say time heals!

For when the fields are ploughed and the seeds sprout

Seeds filled with reminiscence of what you buried

Is that what you want?

Reminiscence of the buried!

Remember now, as the wise told

“You shall reap what you sow”

What have you sown?

What have you sown?

That is the question we conveniently forget.

I tell you again, time is not a miracle maker

Time is not a healer

Time is Time

Time is Kind

It presents unto you an opportunity to unclog and drain

It is up to you to heal

It is up to you to weed out the weeds and sow the right seeds!

Lines and Lanes

 The Crow's feet near your eyes,

The smile lines

The furrows above your brows..

Are the testimonials of the lanes you took.

The journey you choose.

The love you gave.

And the challenges you accepted!

Each carry a story, waiting to be unboxed

A memory to treasure

A wisdom to part with.

When we meet, don’t shy away!

Present to me your lines!

Shower me with tales of your lanes!

For it is I, who is blessed, when your express..

Making mine, all that is yours

Making mine all that is yours.

Your lines and your lanes

Become our lines and our lane.
