I Am A Lost Star Poem by Prabir Gayen
I Am A Lost Star
I am a Lost Star
Sitting close by You,
Sitting close by Your Light,
I feel deserted and dreary,
My mind goes far away,
Swimming across the memory,
Everything is same as before,
Only mind has lost the track,
Mind has created hell around,
Hell of joyless ambience and pain,
Heart leaps with surge of pain,
Empty vessel is full of tide: despair,
Meditative mind is lost in space,
Space within space a deep dungeon,
A solid aura of dream stunts the growth,
The growth of falling onto Your feet,
Like dead leaf without choice,
Within the 'ashram' I am a stranger,
Stranger to life and breath; outsider,
Thoughtless mind is now a painful dreamer,
Dreamer to be uprooted from the self,
Deep Desires become useless path,
Without hopes and dreams I am nowhere,
Only to see life and its death with pain,
The dignity to attend to life has become
a vain witnessing,
With witnessing I am not rolling to Divinity,
Relaxation becomes agony and Ecstasy
becomes thing of Memory,
Beauty is marred with Truth's unfailing blows,
Life's unswerving calling is making me weak,
Past's Pilfering memory is havoc on my Being,
Presence is lost in the womb of nothingness,
Between two waves I am an unfounded Line never
to find my way,
Sitting close by You I am a vagrant star,
In the sky of consciousness I have no root.

Between two waves I am an unfounded Line never to find my way Sitting close by you, I am a vagrant star In the sky of consciousness I have no root. Prabir is as good with themes of loneliness, alienation and depression as he is with passion and love and the fire in our hearts; that he does not avoid being cynical sometimes - out of shame or fear- but being honest about both the good and the bad of emotions and feelings is what makes him such a convincing important poet.
...Presence is lost in the womb of nothingness, Between two waves I am an unfounded Line never to find my way, ...................................................................lines are very much poetic and through this light of existence one could find the choice to make ones journey through poetry and art. Thanks.
A meaningful and powerful write. The power of the mind can sometimes create illusions that could mar our existence and happiness. Loneliness.has been vividly portrayed in this.poem of great depth.
Sitting close by You I am a vagrant star, In the sky of consciousness I have no root... ... beautiful line
A soul all alone, a genuine feeling many feel so. You are good with this theme. The piece is flooded with spirituality, divine despair, the readers also seem to. And you feel from a lonely star to a lost star.
I am a Lost Star Sitting close by You, Sitting close by Your Light....... The light comes from the Guru Sri Sri
