Inevitable Insomnia Poem by Vivek Kartha

If it wasn’t for her,
I wouldn’t be here.
If it wasn’t for her,
I wouldn’t have seen a new heaven.
If it wasn’t for her,
I wouldn’t be so lucky.

And now, if it wasn’t for her,
I wouldn’t be so depressed.
For she spurned out my love.

If it wasn’t for her,
I wouldn’t be haunted by this insomnia.

I tried to forget her,
But I couldn’t,
Not when I’ve seen life only through her eyes.

It is through her eyes that I saw the world once,
It is through her eyes that I knew true happiness.
So how can I ever forget her?
I would have done anything to do it.
You can forget the goals of your life.
You can even forget your own name.

But can you forget what you see every time?
Can you forget the sun that sinks into the sea?
Can you forget the aroma of a flower?
Can you forget the sparkling drops of rain?
Maybe yes!
But can you forget yourself?
No
Can you forget this world?
No.
So now I say,
Now I say that I cannot forget her,
Coz everything in this world reminds of her.
The azure sky reminds me of her azure eyes.
The rain reminds me of the times I’ve spent with her.
It goes on and on.
And now I have a choice.

End my life, and maybe, I’ll forget her.
Or live this miserable life,
And be a victim to this inevitable insomnia
