After all, it’s life only… ?
(Inspiration: Gulzar)

I often keep stopping

while crossing your way

But, only  to  find

waiting for myself…

 

O’ life, why do you  go

on teaching so much

As if I am going to

live here for ever..!

 

Who  says  that

I don’t  lie  at all

Try asking me once

about my well-being…

 

They do burn a lot 

much deeper inside,

Complaints, those

don’t get mentioned…

 

Just try darning

it  a  little  bit,

Will look new again

After all, it’s life only…

 

Every night I put all the

desires to sleep before me

But, Alas! Every morning,

they wake up before me…

 

It sure is so reassuring

to see self in the mirror

Atleast someone knows 

me  in  this  world…!

 

Looks like life is

somewhat upset today

Let’s leave it, after all

It  isn’t  the first time…!

~Pravin Raghuvanshi
