Ultimate Surrender Poem by Rajkumar Mukherjee

ULTIMATE SURRENDER



When I got ready to surrender to you

Keeping me away from earthly pleasures

Finishing all social responsibilities

The wild horse wanted to return to the woods

Why then blown your conch calling me

You know I don’t belong to me any more


I don’t belong to me any more you know

Even if you wish could I hold on to my arms

Any more to fight against all odds

There is no difference in win or defeat

I am a pauper now after ultimate submission

Only happiness belongs to me -why create confusion


What pleasure was there in surrender to you

Who lighted my candle within at the dusk

Could I return now even with lot of offers

I am dreaming freedom from life, re-birth

After surrender you know I don’t belong to me
