Abhilash Pattnaik Poems

Like a journey so unknown, a story left unsaid,
The voyage of life so vulnerably beset
With the boundaries and the lines we ourselves made
Fallacy and tyranny in them so scrupulously laid.
...

What makes you yourself?
And me myself?
Is it the ambiguous name?
Or the ambivalent faces of the picture frame?
...

Moments of silence, feelings of despair, and of emptiness,
In a feeling so unknown, so much of depth in the shallowness.
We bequeathed bidding farewell,  managing a short wry smile,
 Whilst the eyes got diluted felling the eeriness of the while.
...

It's all over and time to go, He said
My head lowered, I copiously wept
To the failures and losses that beleaguered
As the ghastly fear into me crept.
...
