It’s not enough for you to break
it’s for you to break, break into countless pieces of insignificance
crushed, mangled pieces of you
lay about on the earth
screaming, scowling, howling
helpless,turning, twisting
till those colorless reams of your hard pressed soul escape
dyed in the creative juice of living
into doom, death and desire!(ironically)
Yes, desire,because it’s the turning away that made you what you are
it’s the rejection that strengthened you
its the mockery that built you
your brittle hopes and seamless dreams
made of what was not there and never will be
still stood the fight, gave it a try
to walk away with a smile
tender, giving,gracious even in defeat/victory.
PS: A die hard optimist, gives up on every body else except self !
[Yet all experience is an arch wherethro’
Gleams that untravell’d world whose margin fades
For ever and forever when I move- Ulysses]
