A poetic Debut- In the midst of Molecular Biology and Genetics

Its the strangest thing, how in the midst of molecular biology and gentics, amidst all the fuss and knots of pre-med, that i actually find the time ( and the inspiration for that matter!) to write.

Its the thing that keeps me sane i guess.

God bless the linguistics, and everything poetic. From music, to Art, Even medicine :)

Gob bless all our muses, be it people, objects and subjects of interest, or just our dreams.

A peice i wrote just now, un-edited- because i feel like it :)


. . .

Distinct, sharp and powerful
The Emotion that surfaced from the depth of my subconscious
Injuring the ambiance in its ascend,
It claimed its place pretentiously
And announced Incursion

I felt it
As my chest inwardly cleaved
And inwardly capitulated
Bowing to its dominance

I felt it
When my heart changed its notes of jazz
And opted a more neurotic tune
Pulsating, and infuriating
Tendons and bones, no longer could hold.

I felt it
When my limbs could no longer carry the burden of my weight
Once proud, careless and free
Now adhere to Newton's Law of gravity

I felt it
When my head's kaleidoscope of thoughts and dreams dissolved
Into a mocking nothingness
Into a mocking void

Reason escaped the boundaries of my judgment,
Like fretful ravens they diffuse into nothingness,
A black cloud, a black saturated cloud

I now pray for the earlier void again
For nothing could prepare me to the darkness diluting what has left of my faith

Distinct, sharp and powerful
The Emotion that surfaced from the depth of my subconscious

Distinct, Sharp and powerful
The pain it has inflicted
The sorrow it has submerged me in

Oh how Distinct, Sharp and powerful
Doubts can be

.....




Voice of reason, countering my poetic piece, and giving me some kinda peace:


When God leads to a Cliff,
Trsut him fully.
Only one of the two things will happen;
Either he will Catch you when you fall,
Or teach you how to fly.
