problems are many
in the world
and so are dreams
and hopes
but the only thing
that is in our hands
is ourselves…
we can’t control
who we fall in love with
or catch the opportunities
that rolled away,
or change the choices
we made in the past.
but we can control:
when do we wake up
today? how do we treat
ourselves? whether we choose
to forgive, forget or fight?
at the very least,
we can sink into bed
with smile,
and wake up early for
the elaichi tea
whose smell will reach
every corner of room and
fallen heart
and make it warm
once again
today
