Beyond Contradictions

By Smriti Dihingia

Illusions usher happiness

And surrealism dances in abundance

Making you imagine

That it’s here forever

Unexpected calamity downpours

And ugliness breaks the delusion

Showing a reality

That looks unreal and bizarre

Breaking through this realm

Of complexities and twists

Lies an expectation

Of a tranquil world out yonder

Where bliss and despair

Would merge and mingle

Creating an aura

To savour and nurture
