One more poem written during the yester years of school days. Don't exactly remember the date now. Might be in 1998 or so.
I sit down to write...
Gosh ! I don't have to fight!
Drowned in the pool of imagination,
I feel fright; pain, futility,
Everything, but inspiration!
Prosperity seems so far...
Whimpering over the far pavilions,
For poverty is all pervading, and above par;
a smile weighed against a lifetime,
as for tears, even a life is so little a time!
I think about health...
And chide myself, for inacccessible is that wealth,
Failing everywhere, not leaving
Any trace anywhere
Distancing itself from this realm of reality!
The darkness deepens...
Time runs out, the day is out;
Human efforts counts not, and neither does luck...
The sun was so pale, the moon so frail,
No guiding light!
I have now attained such a state;
In front of me, Happiness lies prostrate,
Despair, Erect with it s welcoming bondage
Disillusioned; I need a theme
even for a 'DREAM'!
