Mind Matter

Campus. Air,Sky , Water and People.
People. Minds, relations, complex and simple.

Talked to people and did not talk to some. Some new views, perspectives, some new arrivals to the scenes of confusion. A poem.


When oh mind will you cease to amuse
Of myriads of thoughts
With tranquil turmoils
A paradox of realities

When oh mind will you find solace
From the pleasures of trials
From the destinations and journeys
From the completions of endless.

When oh mind will you be at peace
With yourself and me
With life and living
With pride and humility

When oh mind will you stop the exercise
Of learning and evolving
Of realising and resorting
Of reaching out and retrieving

When oh mind will you make suffice
The wants of the forbidden
The needs of the uncared
The pains of the unrequited

When oh mind will you make friends with me
When oh mind will you realize me
Here I stand at crossroads of time
When oh mind will you trace me back.
