Darkness

Kaustav Ghosh

Darkness-
The road to the unknown?
The road to despair?
The road that ends before it starts?


Or the road to blindfoldedness?
Can you define?


Darkness rises where the light cannot arrive.

But when too much light makes you blind?

And that throws you to the deep dungeon.

What about that?

Nobody talks about too much light.

That’s too much light that takes you-

With you and within.

You lost yourself-

Even though there is so much light.

Most darkness can only be seen near the light.

Because nobody cares to look at it.

The story of a fallen angel.

The story of every fallen angel.
