A Strong Soul

During those lonely hours in a hostel room,when a tender mind is swarmed with many an unanswered questions, nature manifests its healing touch and the thoughts of a fragile mind becomes the words of this poem...

In times of sorrows,
And in moments of agony,
All I crave for,
Is a caress from my loved ones.

Pity thy a person,
The unluckiest one,
For want of caress,
There is no loved one around.

Away far away,
In a world unknown, uncherished,
Where life could be no less than a hell,
Only a strong soul could dwell.

But I am not a strong soul,
Nor can ever dream to be,
Away from the ones,
I always longed to be with.

Then why this torture?
Why this pain?
Why this isolation?
From a world of joy and happiness!

In such a despair,
One night I glared,
Into the vast blue sky,
Adorned with twinkling stars!

I was mesmerized,
My eyes were craving,
For that quest, that unanswered reply,
That were hidden in those beautiful stars.

They were away, far away,
Away in a world of their own,
Isolated, alone, uncared!
But they appeared delirious each time!

They reappeared each night, subtle and silent.
Just to beautify the already beautiful sky.
And in such a deed of goodness,
Enhanced their beauty each time!

That was the reply to my quest,
Which illuminated the inner landscape in me,
For each star depicted,
A soul that God created!

Each person is alone,
And relations are just a support,
Coz finally in the long run,
One must find his own road!!
