White SOMETHING I LOOK AT-169
BY-SMRUTI RANJAN MOHANTY
I fall asleep and get up
only to find me
in abysmal slumber once more.
I feel fed up with myself and
things happening around
only to find me deeply engrossed little later
I lived and died enjoyed and endured,
spent the whole of my time
moving forward and going back
without accelerating and understanding life,
its relationship with cause, space and time.
I spent my whole life without understanding its purpose., without realising
that life is a conundrum.
Life has been
one step forward
one step backward and
I am where I was long back
Everything around changed
but I remained the same
enjoying and enduring life without understanding its purpose and meaning.
At times, I feel... a dry desert is pervading within me, at times , I see an ever green forest is growing within me...
I feel confused ....
try to search the fountain of bliss deep inside
Life has been a meaningless endeavour
in pursuit of nothing
I returned back
where I started long long a go
accomplishing nothing in the process
only to see the entire life consumed in a movement forward and backward
from high to low, from darkness to light and light to darkness....
this movement is nothing but a riddle.
