Known to Unknown

Bhakta R Giri

Blank verse
Drift from known to unknown
Is more complex than life won
Is a movement, in which you evaporate
Struggle to find solution appropriate

You risk your dignity
Pretending your fidgety
Staking your sanity
Showing preparedness in vanity

Endless fights with subconscious head
With tiresome mind you go to bed
Reality lingers only in nightmares
Aggravating the psychological tears

Your world but not for all
Is what stands tall
That cuts your throat
As if you are bot

Senseless have no sense
To dignify your presence
When you are down
From  “Known to Unknown!”
