My hands are full
but not a speck carried,
I have lost being the winner
I am an innocent sinner.
This world that I have –
it’s something so strange,
something so familiar yet
miles apart…
there’s nothing I can change,
nothing, nothing…

Very powerful poem Amritbir! The picture and your words are very striking...especially the last two lines!
Now, I can relate to it well....sometimes everybody goes this...the helplessness to change the world around us...to change the nasty things that happens around us!
But, let's always hope for the best :-)
Have a great day ahead!
Thanks Manivannan for your feedback and making efforts to relate to it...a good sign that my poem could strike a chord.
Another wonderful poem. I like the words:
..'I am an innocent sinner...'
The poem contains a universal message that we can't change the world outside..
Thanks for sharing. God bless..
Pranam!
Its great that you are aware about your sin os innocence....
'Strange apart'-that strangeness is the key of it`s existance!hihihi....
Nor the spiritual stalwarts or the incarnated souls could made the change......
Then how can us?
Nothing can be changed-still we can re arrange the whole so as to make it feel better-right?
Powerful. Very philosophical. Had equal measures of depth and charm. Enjoyed it. :)

Hello,
"it’s something so strange,

It`s Powerfull n straight from the heart, with all it`s nascence! Reminded me of a Bangladesi poet(forgotten the name)
...Standing by the sea side,
What is it that I so fixe`dly appraise,
only if my palms could scoop up the ocean waters'
only if they would , only if they could....
Regards. Anant
