ON THE VERGE

The cow that’s tethered knows how far it can stretch;

The water on duck’s back is aware, how long it can hang on;

The mist that hovers around is sure of its ephemeral stay;

But the lingering thoughts in mind refuse to get away.

Problems in plenty that pile up one over the other;

Reasons in thousands that make life so logistic but hectic;

No longer the mind can bear the heavily cast life;

As it’s on the verge of breaking up to shambles.

Brimming eyes are on the verge of shedding hot tears;

Bottled up feelings are on the verge of an emotional explosion;

The pressure in nerves is on the verge of causing a hemorrhage;

As everything in life seems to be on the verge of a colossal collapse.

Emotional outbursts are on the verge of snapping up family ties;

Long time relationships are on the verge of getting past their barriers;

What if, there is a way to tide over these potential psychological threats?

Yet, there is no means to break up these shackles and be out of harm’s way.
