Lament of My Life
Lament of my life.
Destined life i lived but unfulfilled,
Much had to do,my tears spilled,
Down in white ,peaceful my body lies
Happy to meet God, invisible,my soul flies,
Earth,a stage,different roles to play on,
Multiple opportunities,life was a unique platform,
In responsibilities ,i was good enough,
To balance ,right wrong was indeed tough,
No regrets for family,money and claims,
Bad luck,unstable life my illness to blame,
To beat it, i was in armature , my second aim,
Hope for fellow sufferers,the damn disease i'll tame,
Like a bolt from the blue,unexpectedly it struck,
Trapped in the whirlpool,my mental energy to suck,
Family and friendship bonds anchored for support,
Still,for what reason, my forte got more to thwart?
Much for good,i would have given to the world,
A life of normalcy,a gift,if i had unfurled,
Alas! I could not explore galore,
My potential in the dark void did allure,
Missed the epic moment when i could be more than me,
My purpose in life would have got a meaning to be,
At the edge of life i did meet poetry soup,
Rare of a place,solely an encouraging,friendly group,
In dust,my body is unmoving, not frail,peaceful,it has no pains,
But on earth,personal vacuum haunts and fighting spirit remains.
