Life On Juxtaposition

LIFE ON JUXTAPOSITION
    
     On intrinsic introspection,
     trying to analyse and realize journey of life
     spinning in juxtaposition of
     inability and success,
     cruelty and kindness.
     fragility and firmness,
     certainty and chanciness.
           Ultimate to commiserate for myself.

                  Igniting own soul glowing as fluorescent lamp
                    ventured to travel dark path alone!
              Perfect companion not shown,
               proper guidance not known,
              on continued confusion of purity and pollution.

               Swaying in dilemma of right and wrong
               Mixing tunes of joy and rue all along.
                Abloom innocence to face violence!
                             Passed through conundrum of love and lust
                                                          to quench thirst.
                                            Floated with infatuation.
                                             Drowned in depression.   
                         Whirled in vortex of turbulent turmoil.

                         Rays of hope and despair
                         through lattice of doubt and certitude
                         illuminating or shadowing in continuum.
                       Just jumbled in justifying juxtaposition.
