White A LOOK AT LIFE-140 BY-SMRUTI RANJAN MOHANTY The higher you go The lonelier you feel The more sophisticated you become The more you miss life Calculations, permutations and combinations Dreams, desires and ambitions unlimited Take you miles away from life and reality You miss the fresh morning sun The cool breeze coming across And the romantic moon weaving dreams of love You miss the first rain The smell of moist earth The smile on your child's lips The dreamy eyes of your better half The love and concern of your parents Your status Creates a golden cage Where you stay alone Talk to yourself It never allows you to come out And live your normal life Standing on the top of the world You cry in vain Find none to share your feelings You celebrate your success all alone With no one to cheer No one with you except your inflated go Be aware of yourself You are your biggest enemy It is you, no one else Who deprives you of life and its beauty Your quest for nothing creates a big void And land you in a no man's land Where you find nothing But a ladder that never ends Smruti Ranjan Mohanty ©Smruti Ranjan Mohanty

White SOMETHING I LOOK AT-275 BY-SMRUTI RANJAN MOHANTY We share Nothing in between Except wishes and concerns Yet we share so much Feelings, beautiful feelings A selfless desire for other's wellbeing More gratifying than a thousand relationships To each other We mean so much The dignified space in between We honour The way we reciprocate And understand each other Speak one thing Love is not the way it is understood It is much more A passion unlimited Chemistry undefined A longing eternal When desires melt Love finds its true expression In a state of desirelessness Love fulfils itself One goes beyond body and mind Becomes pure consciousness Know not How to say What you mean to me You mean so much Short of words to pen But no desires, no cravings Except a wish to see you smiling Till I am alive If that is not love Then what is love, my love?
