Edges of Poem

I know no other way to express dichotomy of my thoughts that creeps in from time to time. All the events and things around me that made one to think afresh are put here through few frugal words, probably expressing some meaning.

BETTER TOMORROW

Badly entangled in hope and desire
suffocating endlessly for a fresh breath,
fear eats away body and mind
meaningless music and books do not come to solace.

Night dilutes to day,
day brings more pain and sufferings,
more fresh hopes and desires
but helpless as ever human struggles for his dream.

Each historic day ends in darkness of night,
dream surface every time a day succumbs,
thoughts storms the brain
and the quest for better tomorrow continues.
