A quest - Where lies The Truth
A quest - Where lies The Truth


Unknown to her own self
She grew from an infant
To a composed youth,
In the lap of Nature,
Under the strong shadow
And firm hold of few hands,
All the time watching
The glamorous world
With false reverence,
Least humanity,
Passing from morn to nights.
The wildish thoughts,
The fair but masked complexions
Of graceful descents,
Added to her confusions,
And nowhere, the conclusions.
The talks of aged,
Thunderous laughter,
Rebellious thoughts of youth,
With least morals
Heartless praises,
Painted glow on faces,
All with pathless destinations;
These faces ,masters of the present;
Aren’t they like huge sticks
Dividing the ocean waves?
Was the world same before
Or with ages it has changed?
At the lengths, from day to dawn
She wanders in her
Swift circling thoughts,with a hope
To clear her doubts,
Enhance her knowledge,
Broaden her vision, above all
To know the true purpose of life
,
Also to know the world
With her own insight.
She wanders in the fluttering pages
Of huge shelves with rigid protective covers,
Wanders in age old shrines,
Also the Cultures, ancient medieval.
But Where lies the truth
Of the present age and the man
Who has forgotten The God,
Has challenged, Nature
Lost the soul.
The heat of hate, jealousy, anger
And the quest for material riches;
Has become the prime goal.
Missing are virtues of conduct,
Courage, wisdom and compassion.
Change is there in society’s norm,
Truth to ignore,hug the fake,
grace the false, hide the facts
Woven are the thoughts with fantasies,
Missing is the connect.
Was it the history past?
Of course not!
How could then have the world
For millions of centuries, last.
Certain aspects under covers,
Certain illusions, being spread,
Is this a call for evolution,
A call for human lives to know in abundance,
But then! where lies “the truth?”
