The World And The Universe And The Beings In It Poem by Ravi Kopra

The World And The Universe And The Beings In It



I could not be in step with the world
In youth I was far ahead
In old age, far behind.

The day is not too far
When I will rot in a box
And the people would say -

I am resting in peace.
I am dead, I feel nothing.
I will cease to exist

That's what I know now.
The grandest peace of all is God.
If death is peace. There's no God.

Can anything happen in nothingness.
When nothing became unstable
The universe was created.

But how did nothingness
Entertain its non-nothingness
to leave its stableness and become

The unstable universe now
expanding and disintegrating
and dissolving into nothingness

Like God itself that did never exist.
So universe must be a manifestation of
nothingness. In itself it is nothing.
