Ilessness

A poem written on deep inside by Tapas Sarkar.

Ilessness

When Emptiness makes crisis in sense,

When Nothingness makes confused the unsafe brain,

When Whispering words gather around but nothing to mean,

When Heavy sounds roar around but narrow the ears to listen,

When Singing birds come near but fly un-sing,

When Breeze blows softly but the mould is lifeless to feel,

When Heart aches acute but the soul is blind to feel,

When Cry becomes dry and remains unseen,

When Singing self in nothing but waste imagine,

When a Concrete soul is in prison for obvious blames

And hollowed silence leads ‘I’ and ‘We’ to ‘Us’,

I walk by the Sea shore and stand by it,

I see the Hollow water, endless, boundless 

I move inside deep and deep and deep.
