The Alienation

Published On: July 13, 2016 06:52 AM NPT By: Aravind Gautam


What is this destitute feeling?
All these years I have achieved nothing
But the faint emotions that arose
And I justify it.

It is I who flew here
To fulfil dreams and stay away from reality

Though my pace is a steady walk  
Non-existent

The days are inept
I must be ecstatic for myself

Because the tears seem licentious for others
I drench in London’s morose rain

Because nobody cares what you do

Days seems ignoble between noble dreams
Did I fail to bring change? Or I do expect more!

The soul cannot fulfil wishes
The mind suffers from exhilaration
And wherever I walk

The paths are obscure and lonely
The paths are dark and horrifying.
