Evanescence Poem by Avik Datta Gupta

I'm stupefied with the mounting grief


The shocking reality to believe..


The evanescence of my life hereafter.


A life filled with anger, fear, joy and laughter


The chores of the day sings it's usual chimes


Synchronising with the pace of our modern times


Not really caring for our kind perusals


Or any of our sweet disposals


A marathon without an ending


With desires ever pending,


As I segregate my feelings

And push out my best pretending..


Of mirth, joy and laughter.


Living a life with a heart getting softer..


Soaked in the tears of pain


Crying softly in the rain


Living the life for the next short term goal..


To get re bombarded with a fishy shoal


Of a million yearnings, swimming happily in my head


And I know they will keep on swimming till the time I'm dead


Go on! .. My Sweet Heart


Reach out for the ultimate..till you fall apart..


And then who knows, where you will be..


But for now, this is reality.


A reality well organized, planned and defined


Can't fast forward to check or amend post rewind.


Keep on beating at your steady pace


As I keep on running this never ending race
