5 PASSING THROUGH…

At some point of the fate,

Doesn’t matter whether things happen due to its effect,

We lose something;

Sometimes, we realize and lose,

And many times, we lose before we could realize;

It seems as if, god gave us some gift when we were asleep,

But fate snatches it away from us,

Before we could steal a glance at it!

The same thing happened to me too,

And I won’t hide anything which seemed bitter to me…

Those days of bitterness are over,

That I am saturated; I don’t think I have anymore sorrow left over;

How could god create such a heartless creature?

And how come he created me, a brainless creature?

It was such a cold blooded act,

The act of betrayal, that the creature performed;

This is what I ask again and again,

What did I do?

I had been in my way,

Minding my own work; its just like,

Feeding a puppy for a week,

And chasing it away the next day…

Where will the poor thing go?

Who else the puppy knows?

Why is it that,

That you dint even consider me as a puppy, a dog?

You went away, as quickly as you came into my life…

But, that short time is long enough to

Leave a great fault in my heart;

I am so fed up with people, that

I can’t even continue with my writing;

May be this is what fate is;

And I realize very slowly that,

All one can do is, to accept and persevere…

God gave me something,

And fate should have snatched it away

As soon as god gave that!

But I suffered so much because,

I saw it;

If I had had the perseverance,

If I had been patient till

Things happened at their time destined,

I would not have been crying!
