Feeling nothing of consequence
It takes a lot of effort to be normal
I’m living with hail inside my head and
I walk on rainbows with my eyes closed
The reckoning wipes clean all that I cherish
All that I’m left with are blindspots
I become a shadow of a cyclone
A silent brooding night
and a windless departure of all the answers
I lay looking at the starry sky
to discover secrets from the past
Why do I have to stay here?
carrying no lessons from yesterday
Why do I break myself?
over nothing of consequence
Rain pours like questions
and the sky is covered with no answers at all
You have some great imagery in here.
Thanks man! Appreciate the support 🙂
Sure thing!
Any man who can “walk on rainbows with [his] eyes closed” has conquered the world and all its turmoil! That alone wipes out all despair! I really appreciate all the nuances in this poem, Rahul. From a cloudy mind comes the sunshine of discernment and hope!
Haha for sure. Thanks JanBeek. As always, a pleasure to read your comments 🙂
There are no missteps in the poem, and there is a quietness of tone and mood that I admire. This quality takes a lot of practice to create.
Thank you Copeland. It sure did take me three years to reach this point. Thank you for noticing 🙂
The answers will come… I have been waiting years for some of them to come, but try my best to be patient. Try. Yep. Definitely a challenge when the questions are raining.
Beautifully crafter piece by the way. You have sparked my brain with thoughts.
Thanks for writing.
Thanks for being you.
