A thought
Potshangbam Nyaydhar *
A warm summer night.
on my study table, i sat.
contemplating, a t thousand thought.
the thoughts ; away my time it took.
oh! mind so perplexed.
with feelings, so mixed.
anger, desolate,guilt and many more.
the thoughts; away my time it took.
can i be here,
without the sense of remorse?
conscience made Gandhi,
to stand above the crowd,
far away from the rest of nature,
in contemplating,about the thoughts,
myself , i came to know,
But yet,
'knowing' is not 'doing'
why this ''sense of lack''
and haunting restless.
in my mind and heart.
a thought of spring,
wish to flow.
away from feelings,
so, heterogeneous.
a clear feelings and thought.
like the clear ravine that flow.
thoughts and feelings ,
that won’t make me low.
a thought o spring,
seems mile away,
oh! the many sided thoughts .
myself, which always kept.
with a sense of lack,
and haunting restlessness.
the thought; my time away it took.
are all interwoven in my hope
these are ingredients of dream
let this life surge ahead.
