Sonal Singh On Sonal's Table

Nowadays,
I fear to be fearful
I am scared of losing hope.
As the layers of my optimism
Get peeled off, day after day
My courage shrinks.
I try to grasp and clutch at
The impotent vestiges of bravado
That I so desperately want to feel.
But, I fail.
My waning courage,
Like a tide abandoning the shore
Fails to hold my fears at bay.
What has happened?
How did it come to this?
In the battle for life,
As we grapple with the unseen
Is hope on the brink of extinction?
Yes, nowadays, I fear to be fearful.
