I
------
It was my soul,
Crying out.
Reaching out.
It reached out,
And said,
Why did I come?
II
------
I want to control,
Yet I am controlled,
By some Super Natural Power,
By a changing Fate.
What has to happen,
Will happen for the best.
Realising this,
Makes everything easy to accept.

-----------
Seconds, minutes and hours tick by,
Have you ever wondered why?
Ever sat silently on a dark night,
And listened to the ceaselessly ticking time?
Ever wondered about a night,
When the peace and calm would be unpierced,
By the ticking time?

every poem of urs is related to something ... i feel they are interconnected ... as a poem i can and do appreciate it and somewhat understand it ... but what do u feel and why did u write so that is beyond me ... as far as i can make out i think that u are far left behind time .. u are unable to keep the pace with it .... but why exactly ...
ReplyDeletesometimes i feel it is pure professional writings ... because else it makes me think that u are exaggerating ur pretentious sadness ... remember .. happiness is an attitude ....
