Hardship Poems
Triumphs of Life
by Bhaskaranand Jha Bhaskar
Gloomy darkness seems to have engulfed
The whole world of life
As light has hidden its head behind.
Sobs of sorrows are heard
Everywhere in each and every terrain.
The flocks are forced to stay back home in fear.
And I am glued to the scary news channels
In the hope of good news
That the hard times have passed

Shoulders To Cry On
by Bhaskaranand Jha Bhaskar
Deaths of young people, near and dear ones,
Their dead bodies float in mourning rivers
While we helplessly watch ourselves
Being carried away by uncontrolled tears.
They die in hospitals, built for saving lives,
And we stay back home or in quarantines,
Practising the precautionary measures
While honoring the helpless govt. guidelines.

Stonefall
by Md. Kausar Uddin Ahmed
The man you see
Hard like a stone
That forgets how to feel—
Once, he was a waterfall.
He laughed like falling water,
Ran toward light,
Spoke in sparkles,
And cooled every fire
With just his presence.

Bleed to Succeed
by Somali Mukherjee
The way to success
Is stony and full of thorns;
We’ve to bleed, for sure.
Self-worth
by Precious Whispers
People rejected me for the way I was,
The urge to change myself rose
more than ever just because
there was nothing else I chose.
I desired to be part
of my ''foremost'' friends
And took it to heart
that it had to make sense,

Surviving the unsaid
by Mario Odekerken
It sat between us-
not silence,
but the weight of everything
we never gave voice.
I learned to breathe around it,
to carry its shape
like a stone in my chest
that no one could see.

Hard Is The Way Of The World
by Aurel Mirashi
Hard is the way of the world,
Farmers toiling, workers grieving,
Women crying, infants dying.
Hard is the way of the world,
Relinquishing their soul,
Being pushed into a black hole.
Hard is the way of the world.

by Mario Odekerken
Donkere dagen, een koude wind,
zorgen die zich opstapelen,
als wolken die de zon bedekken,
stil,zwaar, aanwezig.
De weg voelt soms verloren,
schaduwen groeien in gedachten,
maar ergens, ver weg,
blijft een glimp van licht wachten.
