I dithered to my feet My mind partly ridden by aberration My eyes in pursuit of any remaining tinctures of light My frustration disseminating its benumbing beams Pulverizing every hope of my survival But darkness prevailed my surroundings Darkness-that was enthralling every limb of my body Leaving me trammeled within this pandemonium Perhaps my annihilation lied within this vacuity This dark abyss from where return was merely improbable I spent time contemplating, Wondering, what brought me to this tenebrous threshold? Ferreting for that egregious crime I had committed Which made me susceptible to such castigation? Was it my flagrancy or imperative innocence? I thought incessantly, But nothing could I come up with Other than my fault of being ignorant Ignorant on part of our flaws, The flaws of the inhabitants of this opaque world Then in the midst of my depression Emerged a distant spark of blue light A light- as distant as the sun, A light- capable of illuminating the world This spark flickered, blossomed and radiated Gradually eating up the darkness Slowly letting itself ablaze Its heat so intense and almost emanating I lunged towards it But came back stumbling down No- I thought this was not the end- My unwavering fortitude compelled me to rise I ran and ran, till it was in my hands Till I rose triumphant in my pursuit of light.

IN PURSUIT OF LIGHT
I dithered to my feet My mind partly ridden by aberration My eyes in pursuit of any remaining tinctures of light My frustration disseminating its benumbing beams Pulverizing every hope of my survival But darkness prevailed my surroundings Darkness-that was enthralling every limb of my body Leaving me trammeled within this pandemonium Perhaps my annihilation lied within this vacuity This dark abyss from where return was merely improbable I spent time contemplating, Wondering, what brought me to this tenebrous threshold? Ferreting for that egregious crime I had committed Which made me susceptible to such castigation? Was it my flagrancy or imperative innocence? I thought incessantly, But nothing could I come up with Other than my fault of being ignorant Ignorant on part of our flaws, The flaws of the inhabitants of this opaque world Then in the midst of my depression Emerged a distant spark of blue light A light- as distant as the sun, A light- capable of illuminating the world This spark flickered, blossomed and radiated Gradually eating up the darkness Slowly letting itself ablaze Its heat so intense and almost emanating I lunged towards it But came back stumbling down No- I thought this was not the end- My unwavering fortitude compelled me to rise I ran and ran, till it was in my hands Till I rose triumphant in my pursuit of light.
