That a Man’s Life is But a Dream

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I am unhappy to learn

To be unattached to my happiness

 

So it goes, let life come to me

I will taste her in pristine surrender

 

For there is nothing wise

In being strong & fighting

 

There is nothing noble

In causing up a storm

 

I write for the ocean

Who feels my loneliness all along

 

When flowers to the eyes are submerged

In winter’s white bareness

 

I strive to be as calm & invisible

As December air, meeting the midnight moon

 

And I alone, am still the same

Learning to be happy

With all that unhappiness can bring.

'I write for the ocean
Who feels my loneliness all along'

'I strive to be as calm & invisible
As December air, meeting the midnight moon


And I alone, am still the same
Learning to be happy
With all that unhappiness can bring.

Why these lines are sounding so familiar to me? Rightly recognizing the men? You have some hidden power.

I esteem we all have souls Sugata, that burn of the same things.
