Why do I feel so helpless sometimes? Helplessness hopelessness so profound Am I the only one who feels so? As if nothing is in my control As if life is slipping away in a flow Life seems so bleak So meaningless seems life what to do and what not to do Are thoughts my mind prevails What am I doing here in this world? Is the question profound Why do I feel so helpless sometimes? Helplessness hopelessness so profound Why is it tough to communicate with some? Why does it feel as if nothing seems to affect some? Whatever you say doesn't seem to make sense Arrogance and stubbornness are ornaments for some Love, respect, care, and compassion are mere words for fun Who cares and who doesn't do I know Superficiality is at its peak to flaunt Whom to trust and whom to rely upon I hardly know I came alone, will go alone too Why worry and why ponder upon mere existence Let me find a meaning Meaning of my life Purpose of my life to sail through Life may seem unfair many times Yet don't say quit Take a break but say not to quit Quit what is not in our control Leaving behind uncontrollable aspects of life Moment of silence gives me a choice The choice to put a pause at everything the way it is Because at times it's better to leave, not to quit but To attend to it later with clarity To move ahead towards purpose in life To move towards independence To move towards mere freedom Take a break but say no to quit Pallavi Psychologist pausementalwellnessstudio.com Thanks for reading.If you enjoyed reading my post, please like, follow, share and comment & thanks again for visiting my page
