'What If... Your Own Soul Haunts You? ' Poem by Shrishty Shrivastava

Gazing on the leaves falling,
Eyeing at the moonlight,
Kept thinking!
My own conscious haunts! !

Worrying about unnecessarily,
Sanity makes me not to stop!
Instead! My soul sojourns in pain.
Why shouldn't I stop?

Why do I have a deep yearning?
My heart keeps on probing…
May someone comes,
And makes it understand the state!

When my past set me back,
I stance like a stalwart…
My soul keeps on querying,
Don't you have a right to be jubilant?

Presence of scars on my body,
Shows I have survived in pain,
Presence of scars on my soul,
Shows I have loved and adored!

At a time I just keep on reminding,
Yeah! I did wrong to myself,
It isn't the end of my life, my style..
I guess! I've understood the reality of life! !
