Search in the dark

Living in a constant depression aka

a concealed corner that we often go to.

Like a black cat in a black box,

can we ever catch hold of it?

When did this dark fog spread inside us?

All this clarity being a smoked lie and

all this pomp, a mere distraction

Struggling to step ahead into another trap

What is there to believe?

Such vast entirety and no place called home

Life of honesty is plummeted into the
Death of Reality

People, books, places, bodies, eyes & lips,

I search for the faith,
ignoring nothing and trying everything

sticking and longing till they stay still

In this messy wait and a lot of time to kill,

I see a hole of escape, perplexed with its shine

veiling the actual amount of brightness on the other side

I wonder if this darkness is the equilibrium of life

But I strike that thought and move straight

to be the square peg in the round hole

I cut and morph myself,
ambitious to find the light

An inconsolable sadness emerges in my veins
as the darkness remains!

Another search, another darkness

Another shape, another trap

But wait!

It feels less darker than the crossed space

Or is this the way to attain light?

From the darkest to the brightest, infinitesimally

I thank all the elements, people to places,

I realize that it was never to reach you but to search you

After all, not the darkness but

the search is the equilibrium of life
