A Beaten Path Poem by Samanyan Lakshminarayanan

A Beaten Path

Rating: 5.0


i tread on this hard path
laid down by my experiences
experiences gives birth to opinions
layer after layer
on and of the same opinion
a hard path i lay
to walk on it with
a thudding assurance
not straying
not looking
hither or thither
i walk on this beaten path

sadly..
out of love or what
i know not
all my experiences go
all the way out
to strengthen and pamper
my opinions to say
'see i told you so'
hampering my true vision
of the experiences

all my experiences go a waste
am made to take the beaten path
all the way...through life

our opinions one path...our experiences the other one...we are often forced to take the latter path; the former we prefer though this write holds a truthful message within...thanks

Sad, but some get caught in the ruts of life.
