Today is one of those days when the emptiness of life bears down on me with all its
forlorn might, as if the whole of the world has started caving in, in whose heaping ruins I
scramble in vain for a way out. The light at the end of the tunnel flickers like a candle at the mercy of a
relentless storm, at each moment its fire may be devoured by the raging darkness, as if no light had been held against this reign of horror.
The fading breath of hope clings on the iron-hard wall of void that threatens to
crumble at the slightest touch, and bury all despair, despondency, exaltation and enthusiasm in a flash of total
collapse that brings down the rosy curtains of life and exposes my weary heart on the barren moor of groyesque layout.
Where is the hiding place of the guiding light. Is it now trembling in the icy
cavern under blustering northern winds? Or writhing in the acrid sands sizzling in the torrid sun? Where is the oasis that doesn't turn out to be a teasing mirage, that offers in abundance
luscious fruits to
quench the burning thirst cutting my throat? When will the sun rise to
dispel darkness like a half-lucid
nightmare evaporating into the exuberance of morning light?
Trudging alone in the
labyrinth of life, besieged by
shadowy ghosts of intangible fears, I carry the torch-light of the belief, amid the constant surgings of overpowering doubt,that I am equal to all the obstacles life has entrenched ahead of me, with the strength that originates within, whose
exertion can smash every last piece of tormenting confusion. With each step made forward, however, this belief wavers in the face of accumulating evidence to the opposite.Is now the time to call it a day and
relinquish the will to hold on? There's nothing I can fall back on if I let it go, there seemed to be nothing that I will reach if I persist.
So what is the answer in between? Or does it lie else where?
