Unheard Music Of A Lonely Heart

By Swathy Prasad

A resonating music,

From far ahead

Knocks my heart

With an uneasy quest.

Thwarted, I sit

With my tangled thoughts

To snap out,

'Who is better than whom?'

Lonely, I sit

With people around.

The unsung music within-

Disturbs me, with an uproar

Of an unanswered thought.

People are struggling

To glorify their deeds

Bragging about their

Past and needs.

I feel no torpor

For their hollow show

After going through life's

Tempestuous flow.

Timorous, I was

In the initial loop.

But, now, I have grown

Virile and Stout.

Now, I know the

Answer of those

Weird quest-

'Nobody is better than Anybody'

Is my final word....!
