A Separation

Reflection in the mirror

Depicts what my life is-

Looking feeble and pale

Unlike a fable and a fairy tale;

Tied up with complex relationship

With him not likely to worship,

Life becomes a compromise

When no word of promise.

With all my strain,

I left alone with agony and pain-

With the flavor of life

All sour and bitter.

Going gets tough all day

I try to shove them away;

But my loneliness is killing

Let me pour down my feeling.

I wish I have a rewind button,

Coz I don’t want to dwell

In a prisoner’s cell.

There was a time when I was a bird,

Stretched with mighty wings

With no attached strings;

Ready to fly away from pain

No matter if it rains…

High away with a cry

Far in to the beautiful sky;

Now my life is wrath and dry

Where am I going to fly?

With no more water

In my eyes to splatter-

Let me kick off my worries

It’s no time for bedtime stories.

Life is a challenge,

Full of mélange

More things to learn

Further a lot to move on.

Living ends at a point,

Death is final but

Life is full of possibilities-

Let me make use of it.

A lifetime to give

So please let me live.

Waking up from my dream, 
Hoping with a gleam...
But there is such a little thing,

I am the bird without wings -

Cease to look melancholy,

Life is full of these ironies.
