Encapsulated- Priyesh Vasudevan

Encapsulated

Standing among the nature’s fury

I too was impuissant from an injury

With darkness splodged in the path

No one knows what’s aftermath

Laceration is too deep to cover

Hope is the only way to recover,

No evil force can ever maim quiddity

Not even touch the essence of felicity

Lord, give me the strength to stand

To drink this perilous potion and withstand

Another day will surge from the depth

To look into the eyes of death

With every step that feels thin

Nature is all, and we, the dust within

Still as it teaches lessons with surprises

With every dawn, a new hope arises
