Poetry and Me

by Gowri Bhargav

At times, when memories, thoughts and feelings flood my mind,

familiar images that may seem random at first,

evolve into words that emerge with incoherence,

And as I put my pen down,

The words manifest spontaneously,

An unmindful catharsis and detoxification occurs,

that releases the bottled up emotions,

Sometimes luring the feelings dormant,

hidden deep, within layers of concealment.

And at times I travel with the woven words to a universe parallel…

In the end, the finished conglomeration of word mosaic,

breathes with life,

And I finally realize that,

My poetry is an unknown dimension of me that was turned inside out.
