Never Ending Story



I wonder what is life??
Living or letting others live?
Both are on extremities of circle,
That I loose balance when I try to take a step.

I wish someone would pierce me so hard
That I eventually forget my pain forever
I don't understand why pain & pleasure are antonyms
For I feel both are beside me coupling all the time.

I want to be like now or never
For last moments are always a pleasure
And never is an everlasting pain.
I want pain or pleasure, but both are extremely dangerous.

I am not afraid of anything
For I don't have anything to loose
Except my death,which is the final pleasure.
But for which you need to cross the road of pain.

  1. Hi Neeha,

    Nice poem , on the pain and pleasure front ..just like a coin having two sides ..we can't have both at one time. So in life pain and pleasures comes one after other and have great importance in life.

    for example if we fails in a test ..it hurts us and its opp gives pleasure if its comes after hardship.

    So everything in life has got importance its we human who kind of being judgmental and try to remain one state ..n tries to ignore the reality.

    take care.
    keep smiling.

    P.S : How you been doing? hope all is well.

  5. On one level...I think..Pain and Pleasure are not very different from one another...there can not be one without another :)

  7. Pain and pleasures might be the two extremes, but I think there might be another one, that is numbness.
    The third state that you describe in the last para.

    Nice read.
