Have you ever found yourself lost in thought, contemplating how one seemingly ordinary evening can take a turn so unexpected that it leaves you pondering the complexities of existence? Such profound moments blend reality with introspection, much like the reflective piece we’re about to explore. The poem we’ll delve into captures the unsettling yet captivating essence of an evening that should never have unfolded—where roads come to an end, sadness mingles with silence, and the mind wanders into realms unseen. As we unravel this poetic tapestry, let’s consider: is life just a series of roads, some ending in familiar corners, others leading to the depths of a forest we never knew existed? Let’s immerse ourselves in this evocative journey of thought and feeling. LEARN MORE.

This evening should never
have happened, the die had
been cast, the road ended
and things let loose
in mayhem of sadness
which overcame the reticent
looseness, the mind pondered, the road ended
swashbuckling traffic mended, all in hush,
all in spate of rush
the mind’s strange phenomena, no acid test
noumena, I wondered at this lacklustre road which
could end so suddenly
so strangely leaving me
in a forest I never saw.
