Poetry
The Stars In The Sky
A perception
Sparkling like tiny little pearls
In the realm of the blanket of darkness
Merging above and beyond the boundaries
Enchanting the burnt-out minds
How can something so alluring
Be visible to man’s eye
How can something so pious
Be right there in the sky
As I keep admiring their bewitching beauty
They continue to scatter rays of bright light
Surrounded by the sea of dullness from all sides
Secretly foretelling me something
Giving me a hope to escape the gloom
How can something so lifeless
Be still so alive
How can something so immemorial
Be able to still survive
But whenever I try to shine like them
This world becomes so vile
I rather now like their world more
Afterall, nobody envies each other’s glisten
It makes me ponder every now and then
How can something so inspiring go wrong
Seems like a chance in a million
Whom to believe now
The grim reality or the nightly oblivion ?
