Journey Through Darkness

by GEETU VAID

"Journey through the darkness of the night
with no hope or light in sight
like a lonely traveller I continue,
in whichever way the destiny sways.

I know not my way, nor my path
Journey through darkness
I know not my face, nor what darkness has done to it.

My feet ache with the tiredness of indecision
I know not the blisters on my feet, nor the thorns in my way

Journey through....

I know not my friends, nor my foes
As memory is a crowd of faces with their frills and laces
I know not my fate, nor my saviour
I journey through the darkness"

The Basic Issue of Indecision mentioned in this beautiful piece of poetry is really something to be understood in reality.In our day to day lives this particular issue eats away lot of peace and energy essential to progress in life,But all that comes from either when we are trapped up in sentiments or when we are selfish,
Only way to overpower this indecision is to be with yourself in linliness and shred away negativity by reffering to your spiritual Guru within yourself just finding a way out from yourself full of faults and false EGO.
