IMPETUS
Confess secrets of my life,
The
heart bit had been colored,
The
color was changing so often,
The
culprit was the mind coaxed,
Played
with my life, sought pleasure,
Hues
changing due askance lit,
Tell
my life story of hard work,
Smolder
desires caught dreams,
Hard
work, touchstone magic,
Turned
everything into reality,
In
time, it gradual changed my life,
Youth
period of study, job faced,
It
happened success feather touch,
Grab
in time or slips for good,
Opportunity
never comes again,
The second time rejected a delusion,
Burned
midnight lamp to work,
Achiever
a false name performed,
Got
a good job, a flourishing career,
Touchstone
monthly compensated,
Admit
got what luxury means,
Asset
to gadgets searched the best,
Least
worried, to pay and acquired,
My
residence was the epitome to show,
Selected
trending standard items,
Decades
I spent accumulated,
Tell
surprisingly confide to you,
Dissatisfied,
frustrated, angry life,
Mind
turbulent tortured hell,
Drinking
conceivable pleasures,
Tried
to hoodwink impulse killing,
Failed
to define pleasures, perfect,
Drink
the elixir of love betrayal flavor,
Intention
lurked in the guise of gold,
Denied,
deserted, life single, probing,
Where
lies the true satisfaction, links,
Linking
to what valuable items,
Balance
is in weight like to spend,
A
futile effort to read books, studies,
No
ready answer got suggested,
Queried
learned people learned,
Hour-long
lecture advises failed,
Tell,
you frankly mind was wild,
Behaved
like a monkey tore papers,
The
booked tickets for travel,
Torn
tickets were looked at vainly,
Canceled
the tour vacation,
Waited
impatiently, only now socked,
First
time felt fail to understand,
Never
understood mind its prowess,
Impetus
misunderstood conned,
Tricked
mind my heart was playing,
Hardly
could digest mind cons,
Betrayed
conscience fools the soul,
Thinking
how peace will creep nicely,
Finds
my heart true love selfless,
Again
I can smile heartily to dance,
Life
is precious, but tomorrow is not an end,
I
sought help from enlightened,
Knew
after practice fruitless,
What
I have not achieved amassed!
A
night of peaceful sleep passed,
Is
it peace so rare priceless a truth,
Can't
I purchase, spend everything,
None
could answer convince me,
Searching
for the unique impetus,
The
city once walking in the road,
Found
an octogenarian man I met,
A
loincloth, bare chest, no shoes,
Long
beards, bright eyes, healthy,
Surprised,
introduced, inquired,
Got
an answer to find peace, simple,
Approaching
ninety years single,
Practically
without assets or a home,
Healthy,
agile, spirit energetic,
Answered
the peace, is in your mind,
Difficult
to search for peace outside,
Win
an unruly mind to get an impetus.
