from the old stable...

As water streamed down his body,

unruly thoughts took over his mind.

Innumerable songs he could hear,

but could not comprehend their rhyme…

He ran his hand through his damp mane,

it felt insane, yet so fine.

Abandoned, a corpse on the sand did lay,

while the world sat reclined...

He shuddered with horror, trembled with fright,

a tear betraying him escaped his eye.

A beam from the heavens descended alright,

blessing, it seemed, the man who had died…

Consumed with eerie thoughts,

their anonymity undefined

the deceased had turned into a beautiful girl,

with a truly intoxicating smile…

He tried real hard to block his mind,

clogged his ears, closed his eyes,

but before disappearing the lass did say,

it was all for real, not mere lies…

Several knocks on the door,

a threat to his life,

he closed the tap, wiped himself off, left the room,

but could not leave behind his strife…

.......

While the world rests in oblivion,

ignorance eludes him...

Clouded with obscure thoughts,

mind in a state of trance…

He exists….


Caught in the fakeness of a fake world,

happiness eludes him …

Longing for the perfect world,

improbable yet desirable….

He exists…


While the world goes on with its business,

rationale eludes him…

Overwhelmed with innumerable unanswered questions,

truly shattered…

He exists….


He exists….

faced with contempt and insolence,

rendered powerless, full of dismay ….


He exists….

Because he has to,

More out of coercion than will…

His purposeless life,

seems stagnated,

with no headway in sight…..


Yet, he exists…for he has to exist!!!
