Poet: Kanisha Shah
One day this world would crumble, The pain in thy heart cries and all of them fall and stumble. Disguised as inferiority, worries, negativity, Screeched to batter down soul's vitality. There was a time when no one knew that it was deep in their heart, They could've saved the world if they wanted to but keeping such a strong word seemed quite far. Harrowing voices in head bully to fall apart, Make feel worthless shredding this innocent heart. Till when these aching, gnawing bruises I will carry? Have to wield soul, heart and mind to parry. I felt it in my heart and I wish I could play the part, Bring this world a little bit of peace, only that would calm my heart. Living in solace seems next to impossible and sometimes I feel like I can't live here anymore, I need a place where I can live in peace and not stumble and not just sit still and crumble. Now I see that it is everyone's ambition to have a society which lives in peace and a strong institution, But oh how hard I cry when I understand that dreaming is not enough, unless we adopt new techniques and ways of living, we'll have to tie ourselves in handcuffs. But, I should be armed enough to fight back, Is it really the strength of soul that I lack? Living together in this beautiful world in harmony is the best feeling ever, Unless we don't start now, there is no use of calling ourselves clever. Finally, followed the path of guided serene inner bliss, Now, no voices are there, only sound of silence, bliss and peace.
