Grinding Life
Eshwara Prasad Nov 2022
Life is so miserable that we often feel as though the sun rising and setting each day symbolises our birth and death for the day.

You seem to always feel as though something you really needed in life has been lost forever, no matter what you have in life.
Eshwara Prasad Nov 2022
We are travelling quickly on a path that is blind to our misery.
We believe that destiny will unfold itself.
Our goals change, and so does our path.
Nothing appears to be close to where we want to be. But we keep moving.

Untitled
Eshwara Prasad Nov 2022
You visit me once in a while.
Difficulties, on the other hand, are coming thick and fast.
I'm not sure what good it does to share my woes with you.
