Poetry
Obscure Sojourn
by
Ehsan Elahi Ehsan
Full many a time I go on a sojourn
To a world which is not this worldly world
Where men are not so deceitful, so selfish
Where life is not loaded with so much artificiality
Where joys are pure, sorrows undiluted
I wish to enter into that world
But alas! The inhabitants would not allow me
They bow before me and entreat
That I may go back where from I came
As if there world is not worth for my living
As if they are too simple to adopt
That life that I had decked
After the hard work of many centuries
With the art of how to deceive my fellow beings
Being helpless and perhaps seeming kind
I come back to my own world
And am lost into darkness again
Wishing that I could never return
From that obscure world
Where people did not like to be
As wise as people of my own world
With identities not their own.
