Times have changed for the things to be blamed

Amongst everything there is always a reason to be tamed

Light was there shimmering in the corner of eyes

To look any further darkness took its flight!

 

To trod down alone there is always a capped fear

Surviving or crumbling was a hardened gear

Life as it seemed was never prepared

To take the worst was unexpectedly layered!

 

It was a gamble I forged not to take

Where losing or winning was never at stake

I grappled I tried i sobbed and then I cried

To let it go was the then best ultimate sight!

 

Destiny as they say has its own conviction

To fight it out will be a moronic compunction

All I pray for the lord to say is that one thing

Which can make me calm with a serendipitous glint!

 

I know this too shall pass but what about the lacuna

Well words abridge not what you seek for a vicious puma

It’s tough when not many things make sense

But then I stand with equanimity only to see an unanticipated trench!

 

Hope was just a word but not anymore

To take it right or wrong is something I’ll not explore

I am tired for I need to take a hiatus

From this weltschmerz state where I am alone with divine afflatus!!

 

(I hope I am strong to pass these winds of change, for I believed in you my dear lord to help me sail)
