Introspection: a journey within

All Rights Reserved ©

Summary

Introspection: a journey within, is a collection of poems & verses centered around an individual's struggle to cope up & deal with the internal feeling of being lost. A journey of a seeker to introspect on life, it's meaning, it's purpose, to seek answers to questions that never keep silent in the chaotic ruins of our heart. To not just seek God but also question him. A journey questioning the same old belief systems & the past. Dealing the same old repeating patterns of internal suffering and a desperate attempt to find a way out. A struggle against the ever problematic mind. A mind which has kept the soul blindfolded of its existence by the illusion of good, bad, love, hate and what not but above all it's a war against the greatest enemy of an individual, that is attachments. It's an individual's journey of questioning, complaining, contemplating, being non-judgmental of others and the own self & the great stuggle to escape the clutches of the mind and become stoic. I'll be consistently adding new parts to this collection regularly. Hope you stick around. Let my poetry mimic your thoughts/ words that may end up making your day, & if they ever touch you in the wrong place/ feel free to reject them as weightless I am the nameless poet. I hope you enjoy your stay here and become more than just friends with my work🙏

DECLARATION OF A WAR

I have slowly begun

to open up my eyes,

slowly but surely

I am making an effort

I've been gathering courage

In bits and pieces/

to clean the blurred

mirror of my heart/

to get rid of all

the dust & ignorance

I have made my mind,

To battle against the mind

for it is the root cause

of all the instability inside

Often a lot it has manipulated me,

To take actions that are unrequired/

to crash land myself into tragedies,

Time & again it has conspired

although you are a part of me

but you aren't what I am

supposed to be,

your time is up now

& mine has come

for now I understand

the pattern you've been

following all these years,

to keep me blind & ignorant

of my own freedom

So dear mind,

I hope your are listening,

For my pair of ears are yours too,

& i hope you're able to witness as well

That no matter what, I am coming after you
