Even breathing seems to be such a burden.
How do I unburden myself from this deep sense of worthlessness.
Innumerable times have I fought this upsurge of negative emotions,
Battled a thousand waves of despair,
Is this turbulence forever?
The more I discard it from within me the more it wraps me,
Oh! how many times should I shed you?
How many times do you seep deep into my mind?
I collapse famished,
But, my soul you cannot touch,
Each time you attack me, my soul stays untouched,
It remains a source of energy and everything positive,
It lifts my body and gives the energy to battle everything that you pose with all your might.
You stand destroyed and my soul remains a constant companion to this weary body.
An uplifting and spiritually insightful work .Another fine example of Rashmi’s poetry.
Thank you Sir.
beginning with negative notions,how wonderfully the poet dispels all negative elements and establishes supremacy of eternal positivity within us.
