Distress Poem by Udaya Pant

Distress

Chirping of birds
Irritates me
Romantic songs
Now haunt me

Picturesque scenes
Dot not interest me
My favourite companions
Are repulsing me

Entertainments
Don’t entertain me
I don’t like anything
I hate every thing

My thoughts are lost
My reasoning has bugs
I like to spend time
Like in a cocoon

I know it’s wrong
My feelings that stress
But I am, seemingly
In a state of distress!
