Eyes open to forbidden sight, <br />Body forces amid unpleasant delight, <br />Refuse to judge- obscurity or vivid light? <br />But then rush forth with mighty insight! <br /> <br />Gamut of might, yet dread lingers- <br />Known fear for those unknown avengers, <br />Swing to those forces, unstoppable; <br />Then welcomes wounds, skin vulnerable. <br /> <br />Racing heart continually pleads for rest, <br />But bewildered mind repels its quest; <br />Exhausted perspiration, and thirsty ocean <br />Within my inconsolable irate frustration! <br /> <br />Copyright © 2008 SYED AMAAN AHMAD<br /><br />SYED AMAAN AHMAD<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/slow-tracks-lead-to-fast-welcome-mumbai/
