Part A - Introspection
[I feel my equanimity has been shaken…]
Locked in the cage of solitude,
Betrayed by my conscience,
seeking the answers for
the enigma of my life….
How can I deny myself this pain,
When remorse is filled in my veins…
How can I pretend I am okay,
When my blood is infected with shame…
I wonder what coaxed me to sell my bliss,
I wonder what stimulated me to forsake my sanity…
I wonder how it started,
I wonder how, I wonder why… it started...
Part B - Mesmerized
[The ethereal light guiding to the forsaken path to bliss...]
As I gaze in the deep skies,
To decipher the wrong and the right…
An empty conscience,
is beckoned by an ethereal light…
Mesmerized is my mind,
And its getting harder to think straight….
My destiny is being defined,
By the architects of my fate….
In my darkest hour,
My confidant, a feeble rope….
With all my strength I hold it hard,
As I descend to the valley of hope...
Hypnotic illusion, or a heavenly dream
An angel's imagination, or is the reality so serene…
My fortunes have lit up, in this night so cold,
Oh primordial forces of this land, this soul is now sold…..
Part C - Interlude
[Here I am, at the gates of utopia….]
As I peek through the utopian kaleidoscope
I see a canvas painted with euphoria and hope……
Part D- The Paradox Speaketh
[Perfection is sham in absence of appreciation… ]
Aeons of time has passed ,
and the secret of the sun is reveled…
Trapped in the cage of its luster,
the essence of the night is never conceived…
As it burns in anxiety, a desire is born,
to perceive the aura of its own brightness….
In tears and pain, this desire is torn,
by its inability to comprehend the darkness….
An ungrateful heart, a fragile mind,
fails to appreciate a life so divine…
Ignorant senses, embrace its beauty,
As misery conquers the fortress of its time…
An elixir failing to satiate this thirst,
And the veil of dissatisfaction is adorned…
Dejected in these celestial corridors,
The paradox of utopia is born…
Part E - Epilog
[And I wish to return home….]
Freedom from greed, freedom from pain..
Freedom from thirst and materialistic gain…
Is all I wish, is all I need……
