Poetry IV – 1000 Random Letters

And now I choose to write 1000 more random letters

1000 random letters to God

Single not answered

In my dreams, he says

He wants me to be a good listener

But I end up being a bad one

Yeah, I end up being a bad listener

And maybe the worst expressor

__

I’m the one who has spent 1000 of hrs listening

I’m the one who lends everyone my ears but no one my voice

I’m the one who would rather choose to listen than to speak

And yet I would complain

I’m a bad listener

___

I know I wrote

1000 random letters to God

Single not answered

Yet my faith is not shaken cuz I know he read them all

I know he has faith on me

And I know he believes that I can handle everything

So he chooses not to write me back

__

And now I choose to write

1000 more random letters to God

  2. Aanchal would you spare me a bit of your time to explain what does being “a bad listener” indicate? I have some presumptions but i’d like to know the writers’ thoughts behind it.

    1. Okay, there were few things in my mind while writing this . Basically the person says that she is a kind of messenger of God and she never expressed how she felt. But yes she did her best to hear others. But there were times she couldn’t hear and console them. And then she writes, she is a bad listener but above all she is the worst expressor because there were times when she heard but she never said . So at that time she wrote letters to God but never got a reply
      And now at last paragraph she says it’s okay even if God doesn’t reply her, he doesn’t because he has faith on her and he believes she can do well. So now she is satisfied with her thought and says she would write more…..
      Thanks for reading this . And I would like to know your asumptions as a reader.

  4. I always try to keep it simple:
    A good listener is the one who not only listens, but also understands what is being said. To understand what is being said, you’ve to put yourself in that situation and when you put yourself in the situation, you WILL respond. But the speaker says that she does not lend anyone her voice. This indicates that she, yet, has to become a good listener. And she knows this exactly. That’s why the god is not responding- because they know that she accepts and is aware of her flaws and most importantly, is relentless in her pursuit i.e. they have faith in her. (One more explanation can be that they do not respond because if they will, she might get comfortable and lose a bit of desire.)

    1. Wow! You can put it in that way too.
      To be very honest, I didn’t think that way. So thanks a lot for this new perception. I must say I truly acknowledge you as an excellent reader along with an amazing writer. This was quite different
