AGONY - Fallen Angels & Coffee Stains ( Silence of the Veils ) / Pencil Portrait Composition & Poetry By Neha Bisht

FALLEN ANGELS & COFFEE STAINS - Silence of The Veils (Agony)

“Pain and suffering are always inevitable for a large intelligence and a deep heart. The really great men must, I think, have great sadness on earth.”
― Fyodor Dostoyevsky, Crime and Punishment

I believe so too.

Awareness brings pain because it creates endings of all that was. (Without an ending there cannot be a beginning. And all endings are painful). Awareness creates breaking of illusions. It creates a vortex of questions that have no answers............

I am not not a pessimist.
Not an optimist either.
Perhaps a realist with eyes.
I cannot be blind to the degradation around.
To the crime and terror lurking all around.
It is impossible for me to not see, innocence trampled at the hands of oppressors and betrayers.
Life was simple when I was not aware.
It was happy and rosy when I didn’t know !
Awareness brings sorrow.
It unveils the truth.
Like the peeling of the skin.
Agonising.
Is it bad ?
Perhaps not !
Awareness is Ascension.
Soon a new skin grows.
A new light dawns.
But the transition is agonising.
Confusing and traumatising.
Why ?
Why, is the question that my soul asks.
The answer hides and forever eludes.
Why so much injustice.
So much imbalance.
Why the imbalance between you and me ?
Why are the scales always tipped !
The soul becomes weary in search for answers.
I am not a pessimist.
Not an optimist either.
I simply cannot close my eyes
And put earplugs with deafening music .
And think there is colour when only black prevails !
Perhaps, old order changes, giving place to new.
But right now the mind swirls in terrible shades of black hues !

Art & Poetry by Neha Bisht @nehab

For me the painting always comes before the writing.
I paint what my heart wants to express.
I write the words to present the painting.
And sometimes my paintings and my random poems seek each other out.
My art is deeper than my words.
My art is pure & unadulterated. No message. Only emotion :)

Thank you for your appreciation and support. :)
Success to all :)
