UNWINDING LIFE


Oh!dear life
Please explain yourself

I fail to realize your pace
I somehow lag behing in this race.

Is it always the irony that prevails
or is it something like
a heaven's voice that hails.

Is it the pain that purifies
Or is it the success that drives.

What is the 'ultimate' purpose
Why are we living these lives
Are we to follow the same trends
or are we to soar high in the skies.

Sometimes i do doubt my ability
and finally this thing only leads to my disabilities
But i fear..i may not overestimate
May not life again play its coin of fate

I am the energy flowing in me
I am the fear that finally ruins thee

Whenever i stop to see you by my eyes
I feel the world is rushing besides
Its then, that i cry out for help

Oh!dear life
Please explain yourself.

  1. Short but effective. Basic questions raised in a delicate and genteel style.
    "I am the energy flowing in me
    I am the fear that finally ruins thee" seems to be curtly drifting. Awesome. I mean yeah.
    Contemplations! :)

  3. wonderful creation!!!Direct from the heart..particularly loved these lines - "Is it always the irony that prevails or is it something like a heaven's voice that hails."
    and ya its both ways true-pain purifies and success drives..success has no existence without failure and vice-versa..{i knw ,u knw all this..phir bhi ;)}

  5. Hey! btw, "apple fall" is grammatically incorrect!

    make it - when an apple falls or apples fall.

    Just a suggestion. :)

  12. I think u r upto some extent right about realizing life.What life is all about?
    Hmmm it sounds good....
    according to me life is something which is very complex. And we humans are so low in our thinking it is impossible for us to understand the complexity of life.
    As said by a great mystic author Mikhail Noami that
    "Life is illusion and these wordly things r worthless then why we r running after these and wasting our time..."
    Knowledge diagram follows like this: (Literature)-->
    (Physics,Maths,Bio,Chem,etc)---->All leads to (spritualism and mystism). So this proves upto some extent our purpose of cmng in this world not only to be a part of wordly objects but also to understand our spritual strength.
