Rotten Joy Poem by Paras Saxena

Rotten Joy



Direness carnally abuses my heart`s tenderness
Dreariness forces to beg and plead for an iota of happiness
Unit drop of joy hangs infront but forever out of bounds
Whips of misery for my bosoms and buttocks for timeless rounds
Countless needles nailed in my heels and palms
Mind`s being shattered to pieces by own qualms
Throats rusted by screams of yesterdays
So I crawl on my elbows and knees on todays
Till the tomorrow with no tomorrow
Till the breath with no breath
After the last beat turns cold and heart to stone
I`ll end just as I began, ugly and alone
The worst myth ain`t God but the Almighty Love
Choose wisely for fierce eagles prey on tranquil doves
Nothing`s given, everything borrowed or loaned
We live only to die, death is when soul is boned
I heartily wish for the close of my soul`s voyage of life
Never ever begin, unshackle from the play of life, death and life
Too few tears to grieve to aid to glue back the tiny fragments of me]
And I shall end as I began, a ugly and alone me
Just remember, I is you, you is we and we is many me
