Desire And Despair Poem by PREMKUMAR C N
Desire And Despair
Desire and despair
Are two sides
Of the same coin
We dream of stars
And moon
And never reach
Anywhere
Every day we deposit
Our collection
Of despair
In the accounts
Of our mind
But never get
Any interest for it
Yet we try hard to
Increase our deposits
And never try
To admit desire
Is the cause of all despairs
A profound poem with deep meaning. A duality of lifes rich tapestry. A good write.
Rightly said. A duality of life's rich tapestry. The poet exemplifies the impossible desires through this philosophical poem. We dream of stars And moon And never reach Anywhere. Possible desires and impossible desires should be separated from our life. Beautiful poem with deep philosophy..
True opinion. The poem actually exemplifies the unrealistic dreams which cannot be fulfilled. 'We dream of stars And moon And never reach Anywhere These sentences are brilliant narration of truth. The reality in its pure form.
Wonderful poem...Beautiful lines... To admit desire Is the cause of all despairs...Very true said. Loved reading it. I feel after a particular point of time in ones life following Buddhism can do much. Especially when one to detach from everything and from all worldly affairs. Loved reading it.
Here comes your point which desire breeds despair? A poem with fathomless philosophical depth.. critically appreciated
Probably, he pointed out about greediness, something we need in excess..7
Then why did Buddha say, desire is the cause of all sorrows?

despair deposited in the minds earns us worries, that is the disintersting interest. Simple poem and clear expression of thoughts, nicely put.
