Is This Failure? Poem by Soumita Sarkar

Is This Failure?

Rating: 5.0


When am all at peace
I am the most puzzled
When I emit a smile
I am all sorrow so vile
When I view possibilities
Pessimism is my liability
When I see a relation grow
I know that near is a foe
When success seems close
I know failure thus grow
When I am assured at last
My actions shall meet dust

The flip-side of life that we usually ignore. Every spell is always two-sided. Thanks for sharing.

Love the contradictions back and forth in this poem, enjoyed the analogies very much! The end is always the beginning, appeals to my intellect! Thank you very much for sharing and for your invitation to read your poetry! So good to finally read you! Take care. RoseAnn

If it is a failure, then it is the beginning of success........there are hidden patches of success in failure and vice versa.....however your verses are not unusual......moreover appealing...
