Still Waters Will Forever Run Deep

Author:: Mitara N

Finding my inspiration through the voice of music and poetry. Being creative and finding ways in making life easier and smarter for others.

Still waters run deep

You know it

You feel it

You don’t talk about it

You can’t even sleep

To keeps these feelings deep within

Subjecting the hurt to flourish

You let go of enrichment

Rejecting it to nourish

The emotionless course

Or turn of event

Can cause a rebellion

No room for remorse

Trust in your judgement

Your lessons were learnt,

To repeat it once more

Only you will know

How it feels

To get your hands burnt

Still waters will forever run deep

Destiny is in your hands

Your judgement will tell you

Exactly where it lands

Trust your judgement

Here we are always second guessing ourselves and feel we in it alone, we can all relate in some way even if we think we in too deep, there’s always a way out. Allow your body and mind to flourish from deep within.

Often the quieter people in a room are overlooked. But they are usually the deeper thinkers who spend more time in thought than speaking.

Anya Ali from Rabwah, Pakistan on March 27, 2020:

Nice!

Mitara N (author) from South Africa on March 27, 2020:

Lol.... Kyler

I think you process it much faster, and I admire that you speak it out.

I think the way you have adjusted with different takes all that has happened in your journey, your actions of making a significant difference speaks to it.

Don't change who you are, for anyone

This reminds me of my biggest issue, my big mouth! Hahahaha!

Growing up in a prominent Italian family you start to hear things all the time like, "The loudest man in the room is the weakest" and here I am always being the loudest man in the room. My favorite is, "Silence is more powerful than any spoken word."

The wisdom in this poem reminds me I need to stop, think, and recalculate; to speak less and act more.

Thank you for sharing, Mitara!
