See My Pain, You Shall Stay Happy! ! Poem by Tenzin Choten Khampa

Days are just passing,
with the leaves falling down from its branches

I write to you a lot many letters
just to say that i am fine.
Understand the meaning,
Feel my pain,
All you will see that you are mine,

With the twinkling of stars,
My life twinkles with your memories.
I owe you many surprises which is only for you

I want to swim in the deepest ocean,
to grab the pearl,
give new ways and new life
to my life,

With a blink my entire life will pass,
though i know i will never be able
to get over my past
i run to get rid of it
but every time i fall to face my past.
i wanna sleep and go back in my dreams
travel to the place
to where i belong,

Carrying a basket full of memories,
will make me strong,
Carrying a basket full of tears,
will make me suffer for long,

Long journey i have to take to conquer
the fear inside me,
i take several steps thinking
this would be the best
but as i take the next
i am left with the same
fear inside me

Why do i dream so much?
Thoughts are just trembling down,
i am holding myself,
to not to fall off the cliff,
every time i pinch myself
i see myself on the bed.

I wonder why things are out of control,
i wonder why am i so sad
i wonder and will always wonder
till i see the real person within me.
