Sometimes I feel lonely
isolated and left out
promises unfulfilled
ditched and reproached
blue and cryptic memories abound…
But in a lonely corner within me
there is somebody
with a panglossian view,
raising a voice of revolt
with unflinching hope
and brawny belief…
Let the world say whatever it thinks,
be unbridled in approach,
thoughts and action,
hope dawns bright light
tomorrow gets better than today…
That somebody enters into colloquy
and wins me over…

Beautiful portrayal of the struggle going on inside everyone of us. Everything lies within, one just needs to recognize it at the the right time.

बहुत सुन्दर ख़्यालों की कविता 👌🌷 किसीको खो गये , हालिए आप का मन अशांत हो कर कई यादोंसे
मचलने लगे , लेकिन आप केदिल के गहरी अंदर का साथी आप को ताक़त दिया और आप खुद यक़ीन किया ,
मन की सच्चे वाक्य , क्या ये सच है? बधाइयाँ 🌷🙏👌🌷
