Surrender To Wishes~ Poem by M. Asim Nehal

Surrender To Wishes~

Rating: 5.0


The evergreen tree of wishes,
When demands manure for its survival.
To make the roots deep and hard,
Little soul surrenders to the body's whims.

When the golden arrow is fired by the wish,
It pierces through all the priorities,
The heart sinks like pebbles in the water,
And the time sucks energy from the age.

Beyond the edges, our desires grow to hold the earth
And we cross all the relations to reach those million miles,
There is nothing except emptiness ~
Which is surrounded by the self-praise.
And then we realise what we sacrificed to reach this nothingness.

We get tricked by the heart to follow our wishes to reach nowhere.

It becomes too late when we realise that was all an empty race, so void to reach nothingness. Excellent with top stars

Absolutely dear Asim ji. The tree of wishes keep growing in us demanding more and more from life.
