"The eternal mystery of the world is its comprehensibility." -Einstein


Smooth ongoing life

A period of ease, a cycle of pain

Attempts to cure that go in vain

An explosion of joy

A fever of agony

Extremity reaches its height at times.

A conflict within itself

A question answered by the question itself

A try to resolve, but the answer causes the dilemma itself.

A thought occupied by prudence

What should be the next step?

When words start disrupting the course of themselves

Satisfaction seems to last for a while

Replaced by a quandary, not worthwhile

Periodical dryness

A shot at love but then withdrawn

Eventual warmth

Comfort food and blankets drawn

Small victories, then some stumbles

Miseries and downfalls

Confidence and nervous breakdowns

Life is cruel

But fascinating somehow

Change in pattern is required anyhow

Ups and downs are a challenge I can survive

No matter how much the contradictions of life revive

I love to live in this hive

It treasures me with honey

And leaves me with a sting,

I am still alive

But it dies off leaving me with a mark

Like a bee
