An aura adorns that soul - A Haiku.


Disturbed heart seeks ease
Angelic drops from heaven
Cleanse wild agony

A dribble of love
With scent of happy spirit
Now, aura adorns that soul

Light shines from within
The heart, not dark anymore
Beats young with new life


When a young heart immerses itself in pain, it seems like the end of the world. But the wise know that though the stimulus of this melancholy is triggered by something/someone, the suffering is self inflicted. Pain is unavoidable because we are humans. We are born with a beating heart which feels, and pain is a feeling. But suffering? That's a choice i think. The moment you decide to stop suffering, the darkness filled in the heart is flushed out, filling it with bright light and new hopes. It beats again with a new zest for living a life. 



This Haiku is written for The Heights of Haiku - April 2012. The prompt for today is 'AURA'.
