What If, Your Own Soul Haunts You

Gazing on the leaves falling, Eyeing at the moonlight, Kept thinking! My own conscious haunts!! Worrying about unnecessarily, Sanity makes me not to stop! Instead! My soul sojourns in pain. Why shouldn't I stop? Why do I have a deep yearning? My heart keeps on probing… May someone comes, And makes it understand the state! When my past set me back, I stance like a stalwart… My soul keeps on querying, Don’t you have a right to be jubilant? Presence of scars on my body, Shows I have survived in pain, Presence of scars on my soul, Shows I have loved and adored! At a time I just keep on reminding, Yeah! I did wrong to myself, It isn't the end of my life, my style… I guess! I've understood the reality of life!!

A mentor of mine used to call that a form of "divine dissatisfaction". The things that haunted me always seemed to fear the light.
