An inward journey and a search for meaning in life have been poignantly expressed in this verse, by Anumita, exclusively for Different Truths.

The constant exodus of images,
when they bar me from thinking
Barging forcefully into incoherent stage,
fuming up to form a fumbled hue

Oh! how I want to be empty,
void of all those cloudy emotions
The drive to feel is so excruciating,
take it all, each and everything that comes

Take away the crushing and grinding pain,
wash the fury so raw and unknown
Smooth away the ugly wrinkles of worry,
wipe my slate entirely clean

No memories, no thoughts, not a speck of guilt
am all spent fight the dragons of will
Shadows of doubt, misunderstanding and disbelief,
shatter them to bits with shards of light

Let me be numb in unconscious bliss,
without a flicker of any emotions
Lifeless, impasse, immovable and sedate,
let life trickle by without a voice

Picture design Anumita Roy, Different Truths
