At crossroads I stand ,the decision is too hard ...A mile stone I see and I know the light is not too far !!
I pick up the threads and try to move ahead ......I tumble and fall , too narrow is the path that leads to the light on the other end !!
A journey without a friend , I lose all my strength....when i hear the magnanimous light say " pick up the threads, you are not too far" !!
My beaming eyes , now look at the other end....the mile stone though says " you are not too far" but I am surprised to see the light is farther than it seems !!
My life seems a bundle of surprising events.......It takes me on a high and when I feel positive in my mind....I hear a sound ,with a thud I am found on the ground !!
No mercy ,no sympathy I seek .....let me live like a ballistic , is now all that I want and am ready to go deep down ...pick up a spade and dig some low lying ground ... a place for me to sleep where I can hear no sound ,nor see the light that I believe is false !copyright(c)alkanarula

ReplyDeletebut hey kp smiling... jindagi har pal kuch nayi roshni leke aati hai..
" teri khamoshi padhke kahin ..kuch kadam chal pade the hum..."
" ab ye teri muskurahat dekh kar, kahin tham se gaye hain hum...
manzile aur bhi thi raahonme ... na jaane wo kaun sa mod aaya.. ke bas yahin theher se gaye hai hum "
lovely lines u hv written here bhargav:)and yes thank u:)
DeleteEven if you pick a spade and go digging deep, you are making way for the light to follow you. Instead, use the spade or whatever to reach the light... :) It will be worth the effort... ;)
