Poem: “Bewildered Thoughts”

I am not in peace, the mind is bewildered

Not even wine, not war not even luxury can pull me back

Counting my days in hope, hope to just sustain

Redeem myself from the wants, expectations and from the want of you

There were thousand of promises, words of love and disagreement

There were even tug of wars, there were unconditional attachments and torments

We were hurt, and hurt seemed like a blossoming rose in the Saharan desert

For just a glimpse of you, I was climbing the mountains, walked through the forests and crossed the rivers

Though there is an ocean of gap between us, I am still keeping my eyes out of my window, the eyes only seek the presence of you

While the youth is young in me, days are in count.

I am like the dry leaf floating in air for a certain era, finding my grounds soon to be

Will need a blow of wind to be dismantle and scattered

But remember I am just going back to the earth, where I have came from

There will be different leaves, even flowers, even fruits, blooming to spread love, joy and satisfy hunger

For decades we will be serving to quench the thirst of yours
