The End


Everything has come to a crashing end.
Days of anxiety and confusion
Is over
Finally Over.
Yet scared to utter the word 'Finally'
Freedom embraces to console
Yet sadness looms above
Uncertainty floats
But joy is not far
Its just that the moment pricks
It bleeds not
But it troubles
A nagging pain
That splinters laughter into
Thousand of tiny broken glasses
Each piece mirroring
The dance of Fate.

A glint of hope peeps from far
Far far away
Like another sunrise
That waits to devour the darkness
A wait that seems endless
Yet a wait worth waiting
To end
The End.

@ Ashwin,
Thanks! Happy to see u now :) and even more Happy to know that someone actually read my post at this hour of the night coz i thought that everybody must be snoring away to glory except the ones who are on the opposite side of the globe at the moment... :D

Ya, true. There are times when a moment is filled with opposing feelings or emotions that makes one wonder whether to be happy or sad, to rejoice or mourn.

All the best for ur future. Am sure where ever it may lead you, you will definitely succeed n touch new horizons.

Take care n keep smiling!! =)

Anamika Sureka said...

That mixed feeling some times is so difficult to understand....I feel as if you have written this for me:P

Saibal Barman said...

Another rich contribution...
I wish those shreds of anguish that go on mirroring dancing diva of destiny rupture all veils of delusions, tear off all shackles of desires in life so generously lent to it in merging both the beginning and the end into a single droplet of completeness in His grand pool of creations!

And she won't ever see the end .. the end is not the destination! :)

Sourav .. in love with me and life!! :)

"But joy is not far
Its just that the moment pricks
It bleeds not
Yet it troubles"

we all reach closed doors
and sometimes mistake them for cul-de- sac.One might reach the dead ends but the journey continues just the question of appropriate turn....
nice read.....

Shas said...

@ Anamika Surekha,
Thanks!!
Happy to know that it resonates ur
life, too.

Shas said...

@ Saibal Burman,
Thanks! =)

Shas said...

Sourav,
Hi! Who isn't ready to see the end. The end is another beginning.
:)

Shas said...

@ Sunil,
Thanks! Rightly said. A turn is required but alas, many mistake the end to be the dead end.

Neilina said...

Serenity also hold in the way we end the things! Sometimes 'the end' is very important than how we traveled our journey or how we started. Nice write!!

- Sugar Cube - said...

Well articulated!
Loved the last para!

Insignia said...

This is what exactly happens with all of us. When its over finally, we are still apprehensive about something uncertain

Tushar Sathe said...

"Waiting to end The End.." Awesome !

Shadow said...

dawn is well worth waiting for...

Shas said...

@ Neilina,
Rightly said. We should welcome the END coz it can be an end to ones ordeal. It is necessary and should be welcomed as much as we welcome a new beginning. It should not be viewed in pessimistic terms always.

Shas said...

@ Sugar Cube,
Thanks!!

Shas said...

@ Insignia,
Uncertainty will always be there coz future is unknown though predictable at times yet not sure.

Shas said...

@ Tushar Sathe,
Thanks!! =)

Shas said...

@ Shadow,
True! Its worth waiting for a new dawn but its the length of the wait which is testing.

Sid said...

My first time here... This was well written.

TJ Lubrano said...

Hellooooo Shas! How are you doing lately? So sorry I didn't stop by sooner. I got caught up is so much stuff -_-'.

I adore your writing! You can capture emotions in such a delicate and interesting way. I loved this part:

"That splinters laughter into
Thousand of tiny broken glasses"

I can't really explain why though. Keep up the good work and now I always read it!

Take care Xx!

smrithi rao said...

Shas said...

@ Sid,
Welcome friend n thanks!!

Shas said...

Hiya TJ,
Nice to see ya after a long long time. Thanks dear.

Shas said...

@ Smirithi Rao,
Thanks but its tough actually, it takes me real long to write a poetry though u may find a lot of poems in my blog.

Shas said...

@ Blunt edges,
The end of one event has already taken. The person is waiting for another chapter to begin and waiting for the 'waiting period' to end.

I hope this answers your question and i have not confused you further..:D

Shas said...

@ Maha,
Thanks =)

Shas said...

@ Swatantra,
Thanks!! :)

Shas said...

@ comfortablynam,
True. Its worth waiting for it though the waiting period is killing.

Shas said...

@ The Aspirant,
Thanks!! Yaa, ur right.

Shas said...

@ Satyu,
Thanks!!
