Deep Inside

It began Inside, Deep Inside –
Like Flames fuming, Water whirling
Thunder Thrashing, Wind Jolting...

It burnt my heart and stifled my soul
The pain thrusting against my ribs began creeping above...
Unfettered, my ego held the reins
Hands gripped tight, head held straight
I laughed aloud and went ahead...

The sun was scorching, my head was reeling
Give me your hand the voice said,
I don’t need you is all I said...

Neither a prayer uttered nor a song sung
Unfettered, I just went ahead...

My senses slowing down, my energy drooping down
My eyes shutting down, my ego breaking down
Deep inside it threatened to blow down
Breaking my ribs and torturing my soul...

The pain had to be thrown
Help I needed, but reluctantly I proceeded...

Neither a prayer uttered nor a song sung
Unfettered, I just went ahead...

The clouded grey sky, the deep blue sea
There I was standing at the mountain peak…
My legs staggered, my hands shivered
My body pained, my heart strained...

The thunder broke through the sky
The wind gushed on my face
The chillness crippled my body
The tears made my eyes wet...

No voice I had
No power I had
All I could do was done
All I could say was yet to be done...

From inside, the pain gushed out
Through my shivering voice it barged out
Eyes tightly closed it came out “No longer I can! Help me out!”

My legs slipped - body broke - as a living corpse – there I fell loose...
The force pulled me down, the chilly wind…wiped my eyes
As light as a feather I was… The fierce force pulled me down, down and down
Splash! Into the waters…there I fell down!!

The pain! The Anguish! - Dissolved
The Splashes! The fumes! - Disappeared

My heart felt light – My soul felt fresh
Serenity dawned and Tranquility restored
My eyes opened to the deep blue sea
There I was sailing in Peace
