Maybe I’m a mannequin immersed in this seamless time
Or an ace ahead of many
Living in a monochrome of darkness
I see a gleam of light through the crevice
It’s been a day, a month or an year
I’ve lost count
As I’m shackled to the corner by the heavy harness
I infer through my peripheral vision
Walls rendering dark graffiti
What a race of fellow beings with no ambition
Just cowards who subdue one another;
No righteous, no brave
Sometimes, I’m invisible to them
“A pebble near the shore”
Waiting for the next wave
What’s after this discreet pattern?
In a certain direction,
Where all the mighty sail
Should I take a leap forth?
All my life I’ve been selfish
For inflicting such opinions on me
As where I stand today
In a remote place that is forbidden
To the ones who lack moral integrity
This mind is the abstract of Hades
Looking through the prism of heaven
In here, I’m just a prisoner
And this perplexing thought, is my only warden
-Shubhangi Rawat

Beautiful imagery. “Looking through the prism of heaven,” you give us a profound vision of where humanity stands today “in a monochrome of darkness.” Thanks for sharing your “gleam of light [seen] through the crevice” β€

Indeed, we all are prisoners of our mind; struggling to adjust our sails with the wild current of emotions.
