From the Silence

a poem by Snehaprava Dash

Being deserted
with the negative experiences,
he wanted to end his life.
Counting the myriad moments
of pain and distress,
before stepping further
he sat for a while.

When calmness began to
touch his mind,
when the tides of thoughts
stopped being tired,
Then from the very core
of his inner being
a voice arose.
Life is not only for pleasure!!

Find an aim
no longer you will be frustrated.
Set a goal
and work for it,
don’t let your thought to own you
Then you can live your life.
