So i wrote this poem when i was in despair and nothing in my life made sense.While i was fighting through depression and loneliness someone showed me a ray of light.This poem is not about my fight through depression and feeling of emptiness in my heart, but it is about hope and waiting for the reason to live come up from anywhere.Readers i am sure you all would have gone through a low point in your life and i am emphasising on fighting it and controlling the depression rather than depression controlling our lives.So bear with me ... and here it goes for nothing
I CAN FEEL THE WAVES,
I CAN FEEL THE WINDS,
TOUCHING MY FEET GENTLY,
FLASHING EMOTIONS SWIFTLY.
EVERYTHING AROUND ME IS SPRINTING,
EVERYTHING INSIDE ME IS BURNING,
I FEEL CLUELESS AND YET STANDING FIRMLY.,
IN SPITE OF MY PASSIVENESS,I DARE TO FACE WORLD SOLITARY.
WHAT CHANCE DO I HAVE TO SURVIVE?
"NOTHING"MY MIND CRIES
YET MY HEART PLAYS CARDS OF OPTIMISM
FIGHTING THROUGH ALL THE CRITICISMS
OH VISCOUS HEART! STOP THIS TORTURE
I CAN STAND THIS NO MORE
SHOW ME THE WAY,SHOW ME THE LIGHT
WHILE I CONTINUE TO RIDE IN DARK.
I KNOW YOU ARE THERE,
JUST TELL ME WHERE,
IS IT IN MY SOUL?
IS IT IN MY HEAD? OR
IS IT WHERE NOBODY EXISTS?
I AM BEWILDERED BY MY COURAGE,
SO LET ME BE NEVER OUT OF RAGE.
DON'T BE LATE AS I WAIT HERE,
FEELING THE WAVES ,
FEELING THE WINDS,
TOUCHING MY FEET GENTLY,
FLASHING EMOTIONS SWIFTLY.
