It’s that moment
when winds have changed
and days have merged
into its inseparable night again;
I stand between
winds and fire of time
and wait for the Father
and His judgment today;
Munificent as days have been
I add the same to this night
Amidst several jejune thoughts
“Am I afraid?” I ask;
And repeatedly …..
“Am I afraid?” I ask myself
……
“Am I afraid?” I keep asking myself
…….

waiting for a salvation? Or a redemption of the mind?
How poignant Alok. I can relate to this for many times when a hurdle crosses my path I have to ask the same question over and over: 'why am I afraid?'
As mentioned before your poems are always food for thought.
“Am I afraid?”
Iam sure everyone uses dis words to question themself when they are seeking a solution for the problems they created.... well said friend...
I asked the same many a time. Very well expressed my fren. May peace be with you. Take care.
Am I afraid"
These 3 words are always attached with us for our whole life..
Siva [Ghost Particle]: Or perhaps revisiting the life and thinking of certain answer ... is there ever something called redemption??

Janice: Janice the subtle difference between "I am afraid" and "Why am I afraid" is tht with the latter there is still the possibility to say "Am I afraid?" and then "I am not afraid" ... and when we question our courage I think we come out more stronger than before. thank u my friend

Kalai: I liked "for the problems they created" - so true most of the times it is we ourselves who create all these problems. thank u

Venus: Yes so true ... thank you my friend

By asking it more often, it only strengthens your inner self.
Most of us are wandering about with million such unanswered questions . . beautifully expressed though .. as usual ..
Priya: yes you are so right ... this week has been something whereby I have questioned too much .... I intend to relax now :) thank u
-------------------------------------
Aria: you bet ... for my part I am meandering for answers tht i know doesnt exists ... but I still want to question ... I still want to hope ... I still want answers .. thank u
fear is always about the future, isnt it? perhaps based on a past experience, but what is past doesnt scare us so much, except perhaps the thought of it happening again.
Mystic Rose: yes so true ... thanks much ..

and the munificent light
