This
poem is a reflection of depressed mind and expressing a motivation to live. While
writing these lines, I was under extreme stress and while writing I got an answer
of my questions.
And the
moon was also looking faded
All the
hope for life was ended
And
Life was
stopped
The life
was stopped
But the
death didn’t arrive
I was
so deserted
Lost the
reason to live
The heart
which was emotional once
Was only
there for restless beats
No rhythm
in the heart beats
And
No rhythm
in the word beats of life
Because
here,
Life was
stopped
But
The death
did not arrive
To end
these painful moments
Death
didn’t arrive
Whom to
tell,
Whom to
share,
Why only
I live,
With this
burden to bear,
I can’t
express
I am
weak
Or
I can’t
speak
My emotions
are dead
The moment
when
Life was
stopped
And
Death did
not arrive
This world,
this crowd,
These
people,
Their
expressions, their hatred
Which
are so loud
This
became a desert for me
I didn’t
know I was alive or dead
Because
at this point
Life was
stopped
And
The death
was not ready to arrive
I was
not dead
Just because
I was breathing
But life
was stopped.
No moon
smiled to give me hope
No love
talked
To give
me reason to live
No faith
gave me
Courage
to fight
Everything
was silent
Because
Life
was stopped and
The
death wasn’t arrived.
And
Suddenly
A tear
rolled…
A tear
rolled..
To tell
I am alive…
The breathing
became fast
To shout,
‘Yes you are alive’
Heart
cried loudly
‘Your
emotions are not dead’
You are
sad and you need to cry.
If
nobody loves you
Still life
loves you
So…you
are alive
You are
not Dead…
Because
‘HE’ wants you to live…
If you
are alone,
Still,
Life is with ‘You’,
Which is
not with many who stopped breathing…
But it’s
with you…
And if
life is with you
You are
not alone…
If nobody
understands you..
Still you
have the right to live
If nobody
trusts you
Still you
have the right to live
If hope
is ended
Still you
have the reason to live
Yes!...
You
have the life with you
Your breathing
is with you
And
That ‘IS’
the reason to live…
Who are
you to end it,
Or even
think to end it..
When ‘HE’
is keeping you alive….
Life is
not stopped and
You
have to live….
To spread
the love, happiness and peace.
PS : ‘HE’
means the Param Ishwar.

ReplyDeleteThank you Arti. Extreme depression can cause the thoughts to suicide and I am sure, if anybody in such thoughts read this poem, one life will be saved. :). I am so glad to see your comment.
ReplyDeleteLike the last line. Whatever happens our life has to go. What do you say ?
ReplyDeleteWhen I started reading ,thought it to be very depressing but as I proceeded it turned out to be full of positivity giving a clear message that 'Life is ti Live'.
ReplyDeleteNamaste Shriram Sir, yes the extreme depression is expressed, because many people live in this condition, and if anybody reads this poem, they may feel like a friend with them. While writing I got the answer, why should we live! Thanks for your precious thought.
