Unearthing Life 2

Unearthing Life 2

A Poem by Anand Sehgal

People ask questions and
expect the answers to be close to
their imagination !
When they don't get those, naturally
 speculations are given birth to.

The script then prepared by them ,
is their version of the story,
which has nothing to do with you,
which you were never a part of.

A few times the concocted stories are
a touch more interesting than
what actually happened.
Usually they are futile attempts of
simulating the truth.

ahh yes the power of embellishment ... and the power also of chinese whispers ... don't we all have our very own unique version of reality ??

life happens, then we take a paintbrush to it and make it more appealing for ourselves

great concept here xx

You are right some people have their own lines and they dont want to cross it any way. Well, your poetry on true platform are very effective. Keep it up my friend.

Yes...some people live in their own scripted life..which has nothing to do with us. Unfortunately that fact can make for some unhappy situations. Especially when the other persons fantasy is not ours. Love the last stanza...it speaks of how concocting situations based on make believe is simply futile. Nothing can come if it.

thanks so very much dear :) how are you doing?
which has nothing to do with you,
which you were never a part of.
The whole world set is like that, so why writing and stories have to be an exclusion, we can live as another person, we have to be either in the loop or face extinction, so poem is relevant with all respects, also truth won't be pleasing as fabricated creations, loved it, different style ofcourse

You very welcome, take care
if we don't like the real life, we make up our own to suit us...the script never holds true to the form we imagine.

love this...second line, second stanza did you mean
"is their version of the story"?

i think we need a disclaimer..."based on a true story"....to describe the life we actually live.
