Sharing with friends my poem “I cannot wait any longer”, published on June 1st, 2026, in the Indian Literary Journal “The Wise Owl”. Many thanks to the dear editor, Dr. Rachna Singh.
I cannot wait any longer
I am in a hurry to wander by,
to love and praise world’s beauties,
before, all at once, they cease to be.
I must love mainly the sad ones,
who were not loved
not by lack of lovers,
but by lack of love.
So proud of my desire,
I will praise those wild
and lost in hidden waterfalls,
after untrodden ways.
I will break my heavy chains
and soon start my journey,
avoiding some chronic sadness
and the trampling of the ways
I will pass by.
