heart’s wish

Posted on Updated on

times may change
years may pass
may my heart find peace
only in things that last

at the end of the day
at the end of my life
may it only be meaningful things
for which I strive

may I never be misunderstood
or cause someone pain
may only clarity, selfless love
pulsate through my veins

people might change
they might want to come and go
but when the time is right
just make it easier for me to let go

through this journey, through this life
its your love and light I ask
innocence of a child
kindness in this heart

it is not one less year of this life
it is one year closer to You
in everything I seek, believe and do
may I only appease You

      this relationship is different.. it is with the Beloved, the Creator 🙂 I believe, if by being here on this planet, I didn’t make my maker happy (including my parents who are next), my life wasnt worth living after all. someone else could have put it to a better use. hence I ask for that blessing in my prayers, that may I be of some use to someone, somewhere and that may I do it right 🙂 thank you for the comment and the thought!
