The Susceptible Soul

The entire world was at her behest
Yet she felt all alone
She felt isolated from the rest
Of all the petty issues that they discussed she felt outgrown

She wanted to be by herself
Look at the wondrous side of the world
The world was huge, she felt like an elf
Yet she wanted to fly around like a free bird

She wanted to touch the sky, kiss the stars
Flow with the river to a destination unknown
Wanted to walk and explore around, freely, with no bars
She felt sometimes its so good to be alone

Far away she wanted to go
Away from the whining and envy,
Where not a single person she would know
Her heart felt so heavy

The outside world could not see
What was hapenning to her
Everything in her life was so perfect, the way it should be
So many people to love and care for her

Yet something was always missing
She did not know what
She had everything she wanted, so many people's blessings
Yet in her heart there was something like a blindspot

She had tried in her own ways
To make a difference to the world around
She had wiped tears, brought happiness into lives,at every step embraced
What life had in store, all throughout stayed strongly rooted to the ground

There was still so much sorrow in people' lives
It hurt her, broke her heart into pieces many
Sorrow of losing something, fear, disgust, hatred, the pain when someone dies
Was there for all of this solution any?

She looked at the waves that come and go
She thought, they are so unlike time
They will be pulled back they know
But they never stop trying

People are the same
They keep marching forward, putting the past behind
Turning a deaf ear, is the key to life's game
So is shutting your eyes, pretending to be blind

Should i do the same she pondered
Or listen to what my heart says
My mind has always been right, she wondered
But I guess should listen to my heart for a few days

With this a hope arose in her heart
A smile came across her face
She thought,'I might be doing a foolish thing, I might not be smart
But this is where my happiness lies, this is where it stays'

I will do what I feel is best
Even if it seems wrong now
God will take care of the rest
To walk on the untread path, it is time now.....
