This Will Go On. Poem by RAJ VIKRAM

This will go on
This will go on and on
Till the last drop of
rain falls down
and disappears into
the land dried by summers.

It has to go on and what else,
No hurdle is insurmountable,
No distance is too much,
The path is clear ahead
And the belief is
ingrained in the mind indelibly.

There was a past that
Ieft not even a scratch
In the mind's walls
And then came the time
Of self revelation
And then I woke up from
my slumber of eons.

Now this has to go on
And no power can stop it
No storm can uproot this
tree that I nurture with care.
And I move on soaking in
its shade and the pristine air.

I don't see a world beyond this
There may be worlds
but I don't see them and
don't want to see them
I know this will go on,
Till the world ends
Which is an inevitability
When I cease to be.
