Pockets Can Only Hold So Many Sorrows

Think, if in life we are condemned to carry
a bag containing the sorrows on our backs,
just collecting them, never able to throw any
and not allowed to put there no happy ones.

“Pockets can only hold so many sorrows”
she said, as she went away carrying her bag,
hoping that from somewhere will come
to ease the weight, that beloved helping hand.

Pockets are small, not too much space there
to hold bigger sorrows that were pick up in life,
only, should you will be pocketing all of them…
if so, could you tell me for heaven’s sake, why?

Your pockets should be full of happy memories,
let fall that full of sorrows riding on your back
heavy reminder of things that are not anymore,
and if you must carry anything…carry smiles.

Great poetry...though many sorrows we will never forget, they shouldn't consume our bag that we carry daily.

This is really nice, but there are some sorrows that we will never forget. We just have to learn to live through them.
