~ The Vanishing Steps… ~ 

☆ 

Generations come and go

Yet the stairs remain endless

Each step appears

As the last one disappears

The distant summit keeps calling

And fear slowly loses its voice

But when breath begins to fade

And trembling legs refuse to rise

Before helplessness overtakes my soul—

O Lord,

Call me back Your way

I have lived on my own terms

Let me depart the same way too

And if a few steps still remain unfinished,

Keep them waiting

For my next journey

☆

~Pravin Raghuvanshi
