LULL TO COMFORT YOURSELF
In the secret garden of our soul Reside the vestiges of our experiences Held in the beginning of our existence. It is difficult to find the weft Which explains the complexity of their influence.
These traces appear without our awareness In different parts of our body, In the form of unknown thoughts and sensations Bothering us and troubling us With their indiscernible and strange expression…
And we continue walking In the tortuous roadway of life Bordered by ambiguities and adversities, But also, by pauses of happiness and tranquility So necessary for our survival.
The stress of being and properly appearing, The impediment of the desire and its realisation, The absence of personal gratification And the intense preoccupation to please the other, Become additional sources of dissatisfaction and discontent.
What to do to feel better? What to do to suffer less?
Act and sustain! Feel the present moment And travel with your dreams. Brighten up with the good moments And embrace your solitude when it is necessary.
Lull yourself with your good memories, And your future plans. Forgive your weaknesses And the lack of sensitivity Of those who surround you.
Entwine in the cradle of your soul To be comforted To give pleasure to yourself To be able to doze And to be able to sleep well… |

The different expressions of poetry
Elegies and poems, both creations of the mind, care only about cadence and rhythm, rhyme and symbolism, sonority and waving. Aphorisms and poetic reflections human problems try to examine, and possible solutions for them try to provide. Felicity Mat |
