MOODS

When the wounded heart has nowhere to go,

nobody to console it, no shoulder to lean on,

and when drudgery becomes a part of life,

and even the flapping of a bird's wings hurts --

then all that is left is stark desolation.

Ideals of youth lie shattered...

The starving soul,

like a dry riverbed,

seeks a meaning to all this puzzle...

It looks like I made a pact with my fate,

somewhere in time,

that is being fulfilled now,

like a term behind bars amid gazes of hate.

Is there anybody who can tell me,

whether anything lasts forever,

in this in-congruent scheme of things;

or if any mood matters,

in this decaying vastness

Of bodies like mine?
