Sleepless Nights
Purbasa Maharana 2006 (Mumbai, Maharashtra)
Those awful days of our lives....
When pain passes through our veins reluctantly,
When we are burdened with stress and worries,
When our sins turns into guilt and regret for ourselves,
When unpleasant thoughts distract us intentionally,
When we are unaware of happening things around us,
When we lose control over ourselves,
When we become the victim of anxiety and depression,
When we are on the crossroads of our lives,
When loneliness turns our mind into its deserted kingdom,
When we are pissed off from this mean world,
When happiness is unwilling to befriend with us,
When we are left with only timidity and diffidence,
When we endeavour to find ourselves.....
