Let Them Burn The Bridge....

If you’ve burnt the bridge
In the closeness of your anger & hatred
Then all I have to offer
Is A Sigh of Gratitude!
For what you’ve not been able to see in me
Just as...You’re unable to see how thy ignorance Jealousy, Sorrow & Pain breeds
Forgetful of how powerful Love alone is!
Nay! I’m not here to build that bridge
For often times attachments lurk in the garb of love;
& demands in tantrums that spew
But venomous words!
It’s Need to feel validated; that you owe me this & that..
& only by the fulfilment of its desire...
Its Self-worth depends on what it gets
“Nay! I’m not here to build that bridge anymore”
To let those attachments weaken my soul
For even when I say “No!”
That firmness is laced
With A Compassionate Love!
I’m no longer here to please....
But to Love from the fullness of my being
Even the parts of you that hurt & bleed
Even those mistakes...
With a sigh of Gratitude I free...
For your very ignorance
Revealed in me The Truth!
That the axe of thy anger
Though may have left me broken & bruised;
“Yet! Love I am!”
& Love is all that, My Being here unearths
Thank All who burn the bridges!
Let Gratitude alone, Set You & Them Free
For once that door to ones soul opens
Truth Alone Reign’s
Unhindered...Fearlessly!!!
& Truth But Only Love Breathes!

Universe in its very design is perfect, this Pandemic & struggle through my chronic pain has shown me immense love for myself & gratitude for all bitter-sweet experiences. Our relations based on bodily attachments know naught love. Somewhere we’ve equated fulfilling our desires to love & gives & takes became accounted for. Our love for another is based on what we receive & if the wishes aren’t met; then there raises heads of anger & jealousy. In these 20 years of chronic pain, many a bridges of attachments got burnt. Yet what it took from me was only bodily relations, while my heart expanded with greater love. Those burnt bridges can leave you bitter or sweet; The Choice is Always Yours!
