A night which has no end in sight !


The toads are croaking.
She is sleeping.
I am writing.

At midnight, when sleep eludes
It’s a prelude
To a night
Which has no end in sight.

A fight
between the past & future
A fight
between known & unknown
Battle ground is my mind
Which wants to live in NOW
But does not know HOW.

I keep trying
Alternating
between Reading & Meditating
After some time
It became so frustrating
That I started writing.

Is this the birth of a writer?
Is this how all writers are born ?
Out of turmoil,
Out of desperation
To keep your sanity
You use your creativity
To put words on paper
Or typewriter
So that that the mind get’s calmer
& the sleep comes faster.


In a night, which has no end in sight.
