A Lesson

Should there be a reason To find that love, or duty, Or values, or even rigor Hold no meaning? Or is it to be understood That we all revolve Into nothingness And that what becomes Our prime cause Is in fact just a game of life? We fall from those high rise boulders Upon which we boast of ascending We fall from the comfort Unto which we grope on to, Out of fear of cold winds That can easily blow us down Should we find ourselves alone We become heartbroken At the realization that love, Or duty, or values, or even rigor No longer holds any meaning for us! The purpose of our journey remains veiled We are allowed to witness only Our paths and our companions And we find that we are no different from Those who just appear in this world For reasons not known to anyone! Love, duty, values, and even rigor, Why, we shall lose them all And even more than we shall ever imagine For this world is a perfect teacher, Having the expertise to make us understand That here, nothing belongs to us!
