Words Poem by Meetika Srivastava

Words to me aren’t just WORDS….
They give me freedom of expressions yet make me slave of others’ experiences.
Shines like a spiritual light of wisdom in the darkest nights of negative realism.
Manifestation of my natural being is deciphered in the thoughts I write to comprehend the teachings I got.
Solace and peace they give when to myself aloud I speak.
Knowledge and education they give when for wisdom I read.
“Thoughts are things” I grew up with and always kept faith in.
Look for good and seek good everywhere, look for the light and seek light everywhere, sooner or later you’ll find good and will see light.
They aren’t just words for my mortal being; they aren’t just food for my soul,
Instead lessons of life to learn, act and re-act on them.
