Rain Alchemist

In exchange

You wish to shine, yet not ready to be refined by the rough edges of life, 

You wish to be heard, yet cannot self comprehend your words, 

You wish to be wise, yet you cherish your immaturities like a treasure, 

You want to be loved, yet find it hard to display compassion, 

You wish to be happy, yet have no endurance for pain, 

You wish for peace, yet you choose to always complain, 

You seek the right solution, yet you invoke your problems again and again, 

What’s going to be your deal, for universe is the greatest merchant, 

What you ask for you will surely get in exchange, 

So what is that you will decide, if you have to choose between, 

Your self comforting vulnerabilities, 

Or tough experienced, hard earned capabilities!

I am Vinayak and I go by the poetry name Rain Alchemist. Writing has been my passion from a long time and this blog is to contain the reservoir of my work. I am not a genre specific writer, I believe thoughts have endless forms and can be shaped into any genre. I am grateful that I can express my thoughts through my poems and writings. I love reading great work and would be delighted to meet like minded poets and writers. That's all for now, and yes, if you do visit my blog, do say hello, I would be delighted if you say hi. Thanks

  7. You handle the vast depth of philosophical thought with such ease. Here you illustrate options that are not always obvious in life. And you do so in a delicious form and flow. This is when you are at your best! Well written, V!
