TEARS OF FATE

Yet another wonderful day passed by

joy and merry was the earth and the sky

the sun beamed brightly and winking at all

While the flowers dancing and swaying tall

the brook playing the melodious harp

pebbles like it's string made the music sharp.

Yet another wonderful night passed by

the lonesome wind sung an old lullaby

took the weary flowers and the leaves

to their deep slumber and to peace

and the night was left alone for a battle

the lords of darkness ready to rattle.

But why the same sad black cloud

hovering over me amid a cheerful world

leaving my visage that turned so pale

struggled hard to hide it under a veil

the happy sunshine and the balmy breeze

stood aloof only for me to gaze.

Made me think of the futility of god

drives one to hold the dagger and the sword

an one time devotee ,now an atheist

daring .even to take arms against the priest

anger and anguish spreads through the veins

finding a way to escape the pains.

Neither found any heavenly hand

nor any magic wand

was at awe when entered this gambling game

marred my own destiny and none to blame

mistook a violet to be an evergreen flower

a wreath of thorn embroidered my bridal bower.

Picked the wrong hand and made the heavenly vow

all in the name of a truthful love

now it's just a bond,not of love but of fate

lost count of the times we used to date

life is indeed a strange game of fun

and a loveless life is the holy prize I'd won.
