Scorching heat and sand
burning the feet
sweat on forehead
Oasis nowhere found..
Surrounded by water
stranded by known
toiling towards land
with thoughts to endure...
Engulfed by the vast sky
as it has gone astray
probing for a tree
to rest its weary wings....
enveloped by heads
chained by duties
under the strenuous pressure
lives like a Zombie.....!

Discomfort of the poet is quite evident in the poem. It seems the cause is, non-acceptance! Well dear, my good wishes! ! !
The strain and the discomfort can be felt reading this. At times things get tough, but when a person has a good will, things change for the better. Best wishes.
