Pick up a yardstick to measure your life against anyone else’s, and you’ve just picked up a stick and beaten up your own soul.
~ Ann Voskamp
And I cannot inherit back
my childhood from a photo-album
what I was, what i am
is transferred in silence
and most probably lost
like all living things
I accept the change of it all
that which expands, contracts
like a flock of birds in flight
I am at ease & I am alarmed
you hold your own hand in smiles
And I cannot do that, I’m not you
the pieces of my soul
Were already given to words
lost on words like a poet
writing after midnight
not destined the next morning
to remember what possessed him
not able to make up all the alphabets
that changed his life as the
seconds overtake me
I will be that irregular snowflake
as misunderstood…
