Lesson of Life

Where have I lost...
The melody of dreams & the kernel of desire!
& instead gathered only dust...
& remnants of the burnt-out-fire....!
How will I assess...
My transactions with Fate & uncertainty;
This is,really,no business...
When loss is the only possibility!
Trickles & fragments of identity...
A thousand pieces of desire;
Despair,desperation & futility...
& the light of inner fire!
May be,all is not lost...
I have a little hope,a little life,a little light...
Infact life is to try & adjust..
& hold the head high,dare & fight...!
