On The Other Side Of My Boundary Wall

Rating: 5.0


I knew-
There was another world
on the other side of my boundary wall
For going there-
I have to only jump over it.
Of course not a very difficult task
Still I could not jump
I didn't know where from loads and loads of fear came
and tighten my two legs
Therefore-
I raised my heels
and tried to peep to the other world.
Oh! What a magnificent scene!
A large, crowded, glittering market
on both side of a very wide road-
full of shops with varieties of experiences-
having business running on full swing.
Another unforgettable scene was-
the cut-throat competition of a huge crowd
to gather the pearls and diamonds
of love and faith
from the market of experiences.
An alluring scene indeed.
but I was helpless
When this side of the world-
frightens me with silhouette of darkness
The vast sky of the other side world
invites me with innumerable beams of glowing sunlight
without knowing my helplessness and sufferings.
I admit that I was not courageous.
But what about the people on other side?
Where is their vindicatory indication?
At least, they could have stretched their hands towards me
to climb up the wall.
but alas!
I only sighed and sighed
Thinking of the world on the other side of my boundary wall
