Life .... a Mystery

Life, 
Filled with complexities & complications 
Wider than the broadest imagination 
Narrower than the thinnest reality 
Sweet-sour 
Beautiful-"ugly" 
Tall-short 
Poor-rich 
Slim-fat 
Bitter-sweet........................ 
The unimaginable, unpredictable & unexpected are all in it 

Sometimes imagined & taught to be fiction rather than real 
And at times its realism is so real & original that it is taught to be impossible & a fiction 

Its mysterious misery-problems are inevitable 
Hitting you faster than the speed of light 
As soon as consciousness is gained 
Thinking of how it happened 
Is like being hit by a bullet 
And left to bleed at the consequences of choice one has chosen 

While on the ground bleeding 
So many things and processes take place within your body 
Many things run through your mind like 
"Sparking thunders" 
"Exploding bombs" 
"Electrifying" your reactions & nerves 
While aggression, pains, reactions and regrets 
Magnify geometrically second after second in a flash 
Leaving permanent, indelible marks which plague our minds & bodies for years 
Recurring & sometimes magnifying itself every time it recurs & re-appears 

It gets too complex you begin to lose words 
Trying to explain, not knowing how to act 
While thinking gradually deteriorates, blurred 
Vision becomes blind defiling the appropriate, the unexpected 

Getting too complex 
Words are made to help explain this newly developed aggravated feelings & symptoms 
That magnifies itself each time memories are rekindled & activated 

The mysterious goodness of life hits you in most cases unexpectedly 
Like a game of luck 
Even the smile, shock & surprise on your face gives a clue 
But doesn't tell the story 
You begin to wonder whether you fell on the good lucks side 
Or whether good luck fell on yours by mistake 
Like a puzzle game not knowing what you'll meet and encounter during your journey 
Excitement fills your mind like it's the first time something good as ever happened to you 
Like you've never been happy before 
Because every time you're happy seems like the first time 

I guess you're thinking that because good things might appear to happen randomly,
spontaneously and unpredictably 
It's rare for good things to happen 
So when it happens 
It's like the first time 
And celebrate because good things are seen & viewed as the once in a blue moon friend.
