STRUGGLE~by Tulsi Shrestha

 

 

STRUGGLE

When romantic dream I dream everyday
dissolves as line drawn in water surface,
then I constantly struggle with the death.

When I tried to explore my own reality ;
I’ve lost my future as I involved in past,
then I plan to purchase pleasure.

When I try to gain spiritual maturity ;
my faith and beliefs get distorted,
then I realize the naked truth of society.

When luck compels me to carry empty jar;
I’m enforced to pledge my own ideal ,
then I start to fetch my own shadow.

When I try to compromise with relatives;
my desires and ambition get raped,
then I continue to hug my own griefs.

When I attempt to imprison beams of hope;
I notice blood-suckers in name of preservation,
then I insist companionship with solitude and sadness.

When social prestige and blood relation;
measured in term of money earned;
then I notice the false worth of love and charity.

When I attempt to struggle with falsification;
my own society itself starts to hate me ;
then I get lost my unique entity.

When I get excited by heavenly day dream;
fertilized hope gets aborted out of womb,
then I realize the real meaning of mirage.
