The Source

I had written down this poem in May 2023 when I actually experienced this all…I decided not to post it at that time…Instead, I posted ‘The Story’…you’re welcome to check it out if you haven’t already read it…this poem is like the second part of The Story…it’s about what was happening inside of me…today seems the right time to finally post this poem (with some fine tuning)…coz sometimes, you relive the old scenes…they appear as if that incident has just happened…so, that’s what I’m sharing with you..and please don’t worry…coz my condition is sort of stable brainwise ✨🤍💫


The Source

His forehead was sweaty
His eyes were blurry
His face was stiffening
He couldn’t even speak
His arm was numb already
His legs felt so weak
He walked as if he were tipsy
Coz he was very dizzy
He lost his balance suddenly
But it’s the world that seemed shaky
His mates held him instantly
They guided him to the chair in vicinity
So he could sit down coz he was uneasy
They were keeping an eye on him constantly
One was pushing the numbers coz it’s an emergency

He kept sweating drops
He was slipping down
From the chair he was sitting on
He was getting frustrated now
Old memories were flashing raw
Inside he was crumbling down
He was struggling to express in words In that moment he wasn’t alone at all
Everybody seemed to have the worried sound
The paramedics were reaching fast
He was mentally preparing for another bout
He was screaming in his mind so loud
This crazy battle was once again very on
But it was slowly wearing him down
Another ride in the EMS towards the red zone

Oh
It was happening again
Thoughts
Were running in his head
Up
No, he couldn’t get up
Nope
He wasn’t giving up easily
Hope
He always had with him
But
He was still mad at him
Coz
He couldn’t do anything
Caught
In this situation once again
Cause
He didn’t know anything yet

Still
He was sitting in silence
Now
He was quitely present
Family
He was thinking of constantly
Focused
He was in touch with himself
Visualizing
He would press the button reset
Breathing
navinspoetry.com / @navinspoetry
The free flow of air in his body
Composed
Even when everything looked impossible
Key
Unlocking himself from the gripping patterns
Being
Reconnecting with the source of the highest power

The Sign

After a long time, I’ve written a new poem…coz the major part of my day goes by in recovering from the knee surgery…it takes most of my energy & then I’m not able to do a lot…I know, it’s getting a bit boring to hear about it every single time…but the thing is, I’m sharing something deeper & something very simple…these moments are teaching me to appreciate small & simple things…the importance of self-love…to look into your own eyes with love…to love your different sides…to have compassion…to give space…and to take things as they come…the very Creation has helped me quite a lot in not only understanding this but also to sense it with my open heart…to live in the moment is simple & difficult at the same time…it’s very much possible though…lastly, I’m still not able to check your posts regularly at my full capacity…I’m doing it whenever I get the chance…my gratitude to you for the lovely messages / wishes & for your understanding of me being partially active over here 🌟✨❤️💫🙏

I hope you’d enjoy this new poem 💫


Silently I talk to the quiet violet in me
While the violent in me is vibrating the violin strings
The sound of this high-pitched music that I stream
Is the melody of pain & restlessness that I bleed
No visor over my ears to silence the sound intensity
As the wise in me is observing myself calmly with peace
The eyes of this tree are sighing with fall of the leaves
The sign of this piece is shining even when I drop like tears
But I won’t ever hide my raw skin or the formless spirit
No shield I’m wearing, I’m simply standing right here

Universal Key

Dear all,

As most of you already know that I’m recovering from a knee surgery & that’s why I haven’t been checking your posts as often as I normally do…so please bear with me if I haven’t read your writing, sharing or any other form of art…and it’ll take some more time coz I’m still resting & recovering…there’s some good progress though…I’m able to ‘walk’ with one crutch now…didn’t know the metal clips that are stapled to join the skin would pain so much…but M&M is helping me a lot…Morphine & Mindfulness 😵‍💫

I would also like to thank you all for your kind, lovely & heart warming messages / wishes…they mean a lot to me 🙏✨💟💫

I’m sharing with you all my new poem, I hope you’d enjoy it 💫


We come & we go
We’ve been tamed & we’ve been told
The achievements & the goals
The professions & the posts
The acts & the roles
The status & the ego
The competition & the course
The character’s worth in 24 carat gold
One to ten is the scale we tip-toe
The label filled world is the norm
Where freedom means to control

If you listen & obey, then you’re lovely & so cool
The slippery layer of soap on your whole
If you listen & oppose, then no manners & too bold
The wounded surface is sored with some salt
The grainy film of judgment is projected in slo-mo
The fashion to wear mirrored goggles of G chrome
Where pretenders presenting the copied as their own
Pasting different quotes from dusk to dawn
Without absorbing the meaning to the core
AI is generating paintings & poems as original
And humans are acting as cultured robots

Aren’t we forgetting something in this all?
Where is the heart that’s filled with self-love?
Where is the spiritual energy & its glow?
Where is the fluidity & its flow?
Where is the present in the now?
Where is the real in its naked & raw form?
Where is the beat of the beautiful song?
Where is the dream & the hope?
Where is the courage to meet the unknown?
Where is the fire that fuels the soul?
Unlock the doors with universal key of love so pure

Spoken Word – Darkness and Light (YouTube channel)

Dear all,

I’m still recovering from my knee surgery…The cocktail of painkillers is quite heavy & those 40 clips on my knee give the form of a centipede…Quite cool, isn’t it?…Therefore, you don’t see me here quite often these days…But I’ll be back…However, I’ve made a plate of spoken word…I’ve garnished it with fresh herbs…I hope you’d enjoy it…Thank you…Much love 🌟✨💟💫

To me both darkness & light are not only very powerful but they also are the purest forms. Darkness is not negative as it has normally been perceived. Light as well as darkness are heart-openers & unique zen-masters.

Repair

Visitation in different forms with drops of transparent emotions
Vibrations in every cell of this imperfectly perfect formation
Speculations in my mind of this physical & mental condition
Synchronization at many levels of the meaty & meet-me creation
Implantation of the prosthesis in the knee coz of OA detection
Preparations to keep playing these chords as a poetic musician
Reflections of the moments that are shining with manifestation
Relaxation while I inhale & exhale the magical realizations

This poem came to me instantly…I’m recovering / relaxing on my hospital bed after the knee surgery this morning, that lasted around 75 min…coz of osteoarthritis (OA) of my left knee…it was quite interesting to hear the round saw, nail hammering, cutting, pulling sounds with conversation of the medical team…with 90s music playlist in the background…So metal in me…Now I’m officially one of these…Darth Wader, Terminator, a Cyborg or simply just Me 😎

I’ll see, read, like, comment on your art and reply to your wonderful comments on this & my previous lines in some time…the cocktail of 2-3 pain killers with morphine is dope…just wanted to post this poem at this very moment, dear souls ✨💟💫

The Spectacles

Putting on the specs
To see the spectacles
It’s expected though
Socially fermented dough
People are sceptical, oh
They only see the septic world, no?

Everything seems so critical
Where everyone appears cynical
Striking innocents surgical
Wiping meanings clinical
Tweaking noise’s decibel
To make it sound logical

Cooking lies by chopping the raw
Growing fear by watering the hoax
Labelling dope as the antidote
Scripting wars on the storyboard
Polluting zones with pure ego
Twisting hope to a deadly rope
