Given Away to Sorrow and Despair

Given Away to Sorrow and Despair

A Poem by Ankit Shukla
"

Gifts for a broken heart..

"

Given away to sorrow and despair,

my heart often wilts away.

Your offerings of pain, you forget

While I cherish what you have gifted me.


In the ambience of my heart,

sorrow sprawls

despair seeps into my soul.

Life's illusion unfolds nature's intent -

all I'm conscious of  is

youth slipping away...

The gifts that our youth can bring... and the harsh reality of life as what was once believed turn to shattered illusions.

You captured this. You felt this... and which allowed me to feel it too. Great work.

Listen closely my friend... the strings of our inner tune vibrate constantly, its developing our ears to hear it, its hieghtening our sensitivity to feel them. Resonate with their notes, they will share with you, your truths.

Keep at it my friend, you have talent

much love n' respect

Pure power. Felt it!

"Life's illusion unfolds nature's intent -

all I'm conscious of is

youth slipping away..."

This statement is as powerful as any I've EVER read.

Well done.

Cheers!
