You cannot overcome life

You have to live through it
Eshwara Prasad Jun 2020
The sick arrived in hordes,
Some seriously ill , some in acute pain, some on the verge of death.
They received everyone with love and compassion.

The disease was new and had no known cure.It spread like wild fire.It was deadly. But none of this mattered.They wanted to take care of the ill with love and compassion.

They wanted to save  all those who had come to them with hope in their hearts.

They had no protection. They were vulnerable.They knew death stalked them in every breath they took. But they wanted to defy death for their patients.  

The disease was savageous.It killed many of them mercilessly.They never expected anyone to shed a tear for them. There was no mourning.

  Their tenacity was exemplary.
They faught hard with the invisible enemy. Their love and compassion had the power to destroy any evil thing in the world.

They saved great many lives.
Their only weapon against the  foe was their tenacity to fight  till the end.

They were the real heroes of our lives.  They were the saviours of humanity. They were the living god's of humanity.

     Let us worship all health care workers, who put their lives on the line everyday for saving the lives of their fellow humans.

Often losing
Often regaining
Your sense of being
Eshwara Prasad Apr 2022
Life and attitude stayed the same.
There isn't a single reference to God, not even by chance.
Much of my life was consumed by frantic work and restful sleep.
Desires had yielded to the invincible will.
The divine had moved closer to that which required no awakening in order to recognise what it already was.
Eshwara Prasad Jun 2020
What had happened in the past is for the good of you.
What had not happened in the past is also for the good of you.

What is happening now is for the
for the good of you.
What is not happening now is also for the good of you.

What is going to happen in future is for the good of you.
What is not going to happen in future is also for the good of you.

Don't live life in despair. Live with hope.

If Earth had rings like Saturn

I would have presented that

Why you lament that you are alone

Stars in the sky are alone,

yet they twinkle with love.

Sun and Moon are alone,

Yet they have not

stopped giving light to us.

Live alone.

Love people from a distance.

Nearness to humans lead to

Propinquity and propinquity

in turn leads to conflict.

Your mind will then again long for

loneliness!
Eshwara Prasad Jun 2022
In my dream, as I walked through the hallways of your heart, I felt lonely, just like you.

Lose all you can in this life.
However, if the sagging smile on your face draws all soul-eating spirits to you, you will crown your defeats with glory.
Eshwara Prasad Dec 2023
The praise you received was too heavy to wear.

I know your soul is overwhelmed, burdened, and lost in glare.

Now you stand here, stripped of any will to dare.

Lost in the echoes of adulation, beyond care.
Eshwara Prasad Apr 2021
You had promised me that you will translate all of my poems into a widely spoken foreign language.

Now, your volt face, declaring my poems unworthy of even a single read, has jolted my faith in my poetic abilities rather than in your intentions.

Yesterday, I lost it.
Eshwara Prasad Aug 2020
If my train of thoughts

Then, it's either looking away
or looking into.

you into an eel like creature.
