Meaningless Failure

i am listening to Journey

while I produce sonnets

like a damn factory

churning them out;

my life has no meaning

But I am happy for the time being;

‘don’t stop… Believing ‘…

why do they pause

before ‘believing?’

just for the rhythm

or is there some deep meaning

hidden?

my sister called and cried,

she thinks she’s a failure;

her company was downsizing

and axed her;

i am happy she’s coming back home

and I think she’ll be happier too;

she’s not a failure

but I can’t make her listen;

it is ironic that I

who have lived in near solitude

for half a decade

can’t shut my own mouth

when I’m forced to be in company,

and she

living out there

hesitates to say to a stranger

‘Hey there.’

This post needs metaphors

to turn it into a poem…

my life has done a 360

from failure to failure

a cycle of nothingness

meaningless

existence

but I am happy

while writing my series of sonnets

About the mighty Kar-Tikan

(Hope you all had a good day… It has been a quiet one for me… And I am super bored.)
