Unknown Truth Poem by Vijay Sai R

Unknown Truth



Almost fifteen years
Less than half a century
The greatest truth in my life
I learnt,
Its so easy
to know
What others want-
But, so intriguing
to know
What I want!

ennai nan thedi thedi unnidum kandu konden..............god has misplaced our hearts, so we have to search first our heart where it is, then only what we need will be understood..............

A truly intriguing poem. I haven't thought exactly like that before. Good job.

Very interesting! A nice philosophical view on our desires. Perhaps a more profound question is not how to pursue what we want, but how to actually confirm what we want. I think we spend most of our lives thinking we want certain things, but what we really want ends up being something else completely different.

The best thing one could want is nothing. Probably that may be the reason you don't know what you want. Nothingness is so beautiful that you would be excited to enjoy living in it. The Void. The Nothingness. The silence. Keep dwelling inside. You will discover it. It is worth discovering, as Buddha did. You may read my poem SUPREME TRUTH.

A moment when born A moment drops dead If there's no wanton, Masquerade Charr burn your wanton There's no need to want Give in to the moments, Sychophant
