The Inner Journey Poem by santhosh kana
The Inner Journey
This is the toughest
The dark lanes
The phantoms of the past
The thin alley of faith
This is the toughest
The precarious balance
A weakening sight
The fragility of a resolution
The pangs of neglect
This is the toughest
The haunts of a wound
The flicker of hope
The bats of fear in nocturnal loneliness
The uncertainty of the ahead
The enticing refuge of death
This is the toughest
The toughest is this journey.
It's amazing how much meaning you wrest from that repeated refrain THIS THE TOUGHEST. It has staying power as a refrain must. A poem made up only of noun phrases with no elaboration might seem inadequate but so many of yours are finely, sharply drawn they are very resonant. They work! I especially like the first stanza with the dark lanes and the alley of faith conveying the sense of a spiritual as well as adventuresome journey.
Indeed, The Inner Journey is the toughest. Striving for ones future to exceed ones present and past is a journey that's fraught with many stumbling blocks. A beautiful piece of poetry, well articulated, nicely encapsulated and penned with conviction. Thanks for sharing. Please read my poem MANDELA - THE IMMORTAL ICON.
Wonderfully presented poem shared really. Nicely drafted and shared really.
