To hold on

Poem Commentary

Again it is tiring out the spirit The lantern looses shine as reflects as dimly lit

To hold on

Again it is tiring out the spirit

The lantern looses shine as reflects as dimly lit

It is loosing grip slowly and giving away the ground

Nothing seems to be within reach and nicely found

 

As days try to end

Let whole world come to you and befriend

Let every one know what you did

Have some slice from bread if they need

 

Had enough of to hold on

Nothing was allowed to be gone

Everything utilized for common good

If anything others can learn from us and digest as food

 

So what! If the work was not appreciated by a lot

So what! If the battle was lost without firing a single shot

Yet there was enough of gain to show to the world

It was end of hostility and animosity and nothing more to hold

 

It is making me feel great as if on top the roof

It requires no words for appreciation as proof

It was done with clear aim of giving comfort

The ship was to be anchored safely at the port

 

How many remained behind me as shield?

How many deserted me in the battle field?

How could tell all that I was not at fault?

It has come from trusted as shock from the bolt

 

My entire youth is not spent on futile things

It has to do entirely different for something

It had something to do with public awareness

I don’t have to narrate it in any fairness

 

It will be considered as an affront to pride

It will be of no use if resorted to seek favor and hide

I have done nothing to jeopardize the common interest

It was done all keeping everything in mind and serve as best

 

Today I am on decline

No one prefers even to sit and dine

It is not the treatment I deserve at the end

I still wish them all the success as best friend

 

 I know it may be raining at my departure

I had prepared for it as I was sure

Not all may realize it as simple courtesy

Someone may definitely come near and convey

 

Dud, you have done best and may go down as brave

You have done it till the last and have nothing more to save

You may be remembered as bye gone days but with respect

This is known to all as it has always remained as cruel fact

Namyaf M.Y. Human beings modify their behavior over time. All change, but there are things that are rooted in our hearts and it is these that hurt more when they are not considered. This is the generational conflict that will never change.

The true philosopher and the true poet are one, and a beauty, which is truth, and a truth, which is beauty, is the aim of both.

Ralph Waldo Emerson, American Poet (1803-1882)
