My Life

About Life, hopes and dreams, sufferings, loneliness, knowledge and love.. Sums up everything.

Three passions have governed my life.

The longings of love,

The search for knowledge

and the unbearable pity for the sufferings of my heart.

Love brings ecstasy and relieves loneliness.

In the  union of love I have seen.

In a mystic miniature, the prefiguring.

Visions in the heaven, the saints and poets have imagined with equal passion.

I have sought knowledge.

I have wished to understand the hearts of people.

I have wished to know why the stars shine.

Love and knowledge led me upwards to the heaven

but pity always brought me back to the earth.

Cries of pain reverberating in the heart of children,

in famine,

of victims tortured and of old people left homeless.

I long to alleviate the evil buzz and I too suffer.

This has been my life and I have found it worth living.

Passion is what keeps us going. Isn't it? Thank you for reading and liking my work. :)

You are welcome ................. and lack of passion, what does that do?

[Avinash]

Love is the only reason which makes your life worth living. Doing things you can't imagine and surprise yourself with your own magical qualities.
And I completely relate with the idea behind this poem.

[Anita Singh]

Thats exactly how i feel. Thanks, Avi!
