In the world of memories, the mind always remains entangled. Sometimes, old memories pierce the heart like thorns, making life feel almost unbearable. It’s as if time has come to a standstill, and all future paths seem closed..

There are certain incidents in a person’s life that get so deeply embedded in their memories that life seems to be trapped within them. We often find ourselves entangled in the whirlpool of memories forever.

To break free from that pain, it is necessary to attempt to change our thinking. But is this task really that easy?

Shadows of Yesterday

Some dried flowers still remain,

In the garden of memories, they lie,

I wish to cast them away,

But they’re tied to moments gone by.

Some faded words persist,

In the pages of an old diary’s keep,

I yearn to erase them with a twist,

But they’re promises made, not cheap.

What should I do with my past thoughts,

I want to shed them, break free,

But they’re entwined with every breath I’ve sought,

In truth, they’re still a part of me.

It’s a fact, the flowers have withered away,

And the words have lost their sheen,

But my thoughts, I must say,

Are genuine, real, and keen.

(Vijay Verma)
