Life...

I once lost a wallet
With all my 'life-lines'. 
Many tersed moments later,
Cards blocked and remade. 
Cash forgotten. 
Contacts re-recieved. 
Life found it's pace.  

I once loved and lost. 
Many a great times,
Dreaming future together. 
Hearts found solace,
Even love, again. 
Emerging out stronger,
Life moved on. 

I once had a pet.
So special and dear,
Best moments I had.
Gave him away 
To a loving home.
A part of me died,
The rest sprints still.

I once had a friend. 
Grew up together, we
Shared bruises and secrets.  
Lost her to the fate. 
Cried many a tears, 
Numb at the sad demise
I befriend still.

I once harbored fear. 
Loss, defeat and failure,
Slowed me down a bit. 
Indispensable nothing is,
No person or being. 
Wheel keeps spinning. 
The show goes on, always.
