Shackled by lingering memories,
Held by yesterday’s worries,
Emotions,drama and trauma,
So scared of pending karma,
Permanently bound with chains,
Gradually getting drowned.
Sins of my youth burn,
Hunting me badly at every turn,
Dreams of tomorrow in captivity,
Yet slaving in the field of Negativity.
Shadows lurking with mistakes,
Failures, regrets and aches.
Struggling to pull away quickly,
Freedom calls urgently
Will I continue stalling?
Tomorrow’s cry for liberty knocking,
Empowers me with audacity to break,
The fetters of despair, bleak.
Ululations I hear.
As I walk free from yesterday’s jeer.
Stepping into awesome liberty,
Of a new dawn of creativity.
What a lesson? What a blast!
Never, never be a prisoner of your past.
