When pain shrieked into droplets of tears
Hardly I knew ever it will sublime in air
Vapors of dead past gone dried
When will I come out of past and
Climb the ladder of present.
Am I going to soak and rinse in bubbles of past?
I know not where I am going right now for sure!

When will I come out of past and Climb the ladder of present. Am I going to soak and rinse in bubbles of past? - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -this is a good image for that question. While the past has shaped our present and we do need to know the whys and hows and whats of those decisions we made so that we learn, we need to then concentrate on the present and make better choices so we can arrive at a better present someday Very well written, Geetha Jayakumar and the above image is spectacular!

Ladder of life goes from past into the future. Maybe present is just the step one places on the ladder. A thoughtful poem.
Marvellous. speaks to the heart. Speaks for a lot of us. We dwell on the past though it gives pain. We all need to live in the moment. The feeling of being stuck in the past is beautifully expressed through this succinct gem of a piece.
It is difficult to extricate oneself from the haunting memories of the past....! But we have to somehow learn to forget the past and try to live in the present......! Like bubbles, we should allow the past to burst in us!
Am I going to soak and rinse in bubbles of past I know not where I am going right now for sure! Yes life is always uncerain.We cling to known and secured terrains of past.We have to keep faith in ourselves and concentrate in the present.Thanks for sharing this beautiful poem.
