Lost Serenity

Prompt Poetry.

In some forgotten crevice

Buried under the routine worries

There lies my serenity

Pretty, precious serenity

The final draft

 

Any effort to locate is diverted

By the hungry mouths

Of deadlines and chores and greetings

And their insatiable greed for attention

 

A contemplative look

But a single one

And I would complete it

Make it a shield against the black hole of worries

Shining, and it will, from its burial ground

Some fine day, indeed...

Author's Note

Prompt : draft, locate, serenity

[exotic flotsam]

A poignant revelation about loss of self to the endless seemingly meaningless. Survival, obligations, committments and generosity consume us, too much. A beautiful lamentation promising release, one day. I hover at the event horizon too, black hole's relentless tug. Nice write. Flows well.

Peaceful, yet sad thoughts conveyed in these words. Beautifully penned. Nicely done.
