Taunting Thoughts

The airplanes close to my home

Circling my neighbourhood

Taunting 

Self deprivation is only a depravity for so long 

Pitiful 

And then I thought

How life was inherently sad

Nurture or nature 

Sad in the way 

You are just a moment 

In a movement of molecules 

Sad in the way 

That happiness is heavy 

Gravitational pull

A moment of thoughtlessness is what we crave for in a 4 hour meditation.
Still, we don't get any reprieve of these throughs, isn't it?

We can only hope for such a moment of peace

Taunting thoughts indeed
Still thinking
Enjoyed this read
Loved how the self depravity line was stuck in the middle
Unique format only adds to it
Keep getting closer to heaven

Happiness always seems to come at a price or be short-lived...
we are just a moment in the scheme of things aren't we?

really like this piece.
