The Pessimist's Poem

If everything is going well
then something must be wrong

Pebble stones

Pebble stones

The colourful pebble stones
On a journey long
Rest on the river bed
Awhile

Where do they come from
Where do they go
Destination unknown
Belong

Beauty permeates furthermore
As they chip away
Their withering song
Along

Inspired by a photograph by
Sara Baik(@sarabaik2) Twitter - You were born to be real not to be perfect

The fog unveils

The fog unveils

The fog comes in the way of light
The leaves and flowers, cold
Do not despair
Their beauty in the mist veiled

The fog undulates, swells
Silent slant, rays of gold
Shine upon the crimson leaves
Untouched, the beauty unveiled

Grow

Grow

Pain is both a pesticide
and growth hormone

It is necessary for all growing things
but not even the bugs like it!

I am still awake.

Feb 2022 Debanjana Saha

Nylee

I am still awake.

I don't get nights sleep
I hear your words repeat
in my mind's reach

I need a break,
Please don't speak.

People like to preach
Assure their life is perfect
Have their hands on mine to dissect
Maybe I am nature's freak

Don't need your poke of stick
But a part of your speech
Found a place in my heart to creep
Makes it harder for me to breathe
Your sharp edge cut this deep

I need a break.
I am still awake.

And someday

And someday

And someday
You’ll know
That you never knew

And someday
You will do
That you never did

And someday
You will say
That you never said before

And someday you have
To let it all go
That you always held close

And someday
You have to leave for forever
But today, you live, as you should

And someday
Someone will believe
As you did

And someday
Bad gateway
Will vanish
As it should
