Happiness In Disguise

By Sanjana Priyadarshini

Manifestations of emotions

Bruised with detonated sweet hormonal lesions

Intensities varying

Sometimes a devilishly looking ugly flower with thorns blunt and caring

Sometimes happiness is persistence of strict focus in the company of masked sentiments

For sustaining in a world of relationships accompanied by diverse intellect gradients

Sporadically the conflict amidst emotional and intelligence aspect gives birth to the fuel of nostalgia

Like a thirsty-hallucinated man in the desert of Arabia

Ordeals of life leaving a mark on face like a sunscreen’s white-cast

Now smile because it was past

Asking a guilty-forgiveness

And when someone permits it unspoken with much truthfulness

Grows within flowers of peace

In gardens of prosperity and ease

Comes with it a utopian diorama

Telling the tales of happiness raga.
