Sushant Thapa
Coming forward
I have pushed the waves.
I am not an exaggerated disharmony.
Those waves are tender
Like sunshine for the newly opened eyes.
I drift in my words,
I express it in stream of consciousness.
Always I hear the beat of nature.
An awe-inspiring holy dread
Pierces my heart like
First godly manifestation.
I see the mature world
And realize
I am just a flower
In the wild garden.
My expression is theme less
Yet, I have a lot to say.
I have multiple themes
To grow.
Is life always thematic?
