My Struggle To Rise Against The Gravity Poem by M. Asim Nehal

My Struggle To Rise Against The Gravity

Rating: 5.0


............................................I am pulled.......................................
........................................constantly pulled..................................
....................................by the external force................................
............................... downward into a deep well...........................
.............................And I put my best foot forward........................
........................And apply all my defence mechanisms................
..................That I learned over the years, time and again.............
.......................Yet I am unable to control my nerves......................
...........................Everything that surrounds me now.....................
.................................Is indicative and levitation...........................
..................................Lost many good fortunes............................
....................................For these vices around.............................
.........................................And now wonders.................................
.......................................Who holds the string? ............................

You called it String and i call it Fate, Destiny and we all are in a state of wonder as to who is holding it and what is the purpose? Intriguing poetry.

I am reminded of a philosophical poem by Khalil Jibran, the river cannot go back...I see same philosophy in your poem. Well Done.

Part 2. You are awesome at word choices to create tone and define direction.

I like the structure of this work--I like it when poets use shapes to help create a mood, an ideological pyramid, to aid the word choice.
