How can I treasure,
A sea with a drop,
How can I measure,
A building, sitting on the top,
How can I judge,
A soul with his few deeds,
How can I leave grudge,
Believing onto all the feeds,
How can I trust,
A heart, based on my ears and eyes,
How can I calculate the pain,
Listening anew sighs,
How can I erase your tears,
Without diving into its intensity,
How can you say “I love you”,
Without spending together an eternity,
How can I walk away,
Off you, based on few moments,
How can I assure you life,
Without correcting your dormants,
How can I weep,
Knowing a little truth out of whole,
How can I sleep,
Closing eyes, yet with missing goal,
How can I dance,
To a note, out of whole song,
How can I sing,
An alphabet, wouldn’t it be wrong?
How can I erase,
The feelings, which I never generated,
How can I live happily,
Showcasing smiles, hollow and poorly cemented
the narrative voice of ,” How can I ” has the characteristics and integrity of a spiritual ” Mea Culpa “. The repeated refrain imbues the poem’s narrative at times with a rigourous and searing self-examination
