Strange,How Fate Interferes!
These very sad moments I'm living today,
will rapidly slip into yesterday:
like beautiful memories cought in a snap-shot...
only to be erased by the passing of time;
like a toddler playing into magical snow...
trying to catch as many snow-flakes as possible!
Existence can be short or long,
fully or uselessly lived;
life can reward us or punish us...
strange how fate interferes
to bring us little consolation and joy,
but life battling against death
is a continuous struggle leading to mystery...
and all that we have left is this conscience!
Strange how destiny interferes
when everything is in full swing...
making wishes for a brighter tomorrow,
and intertwining them with stependous dreams;
strange how destiny interferes
to prevent us from reaching happiness,
and somehow we are to blame
for letting it distort our minds...
by taking another road
that promises nothing but doubts!
Strange,how fate interferes
at the height of our joy and success;
bringing us tons of grief,
to teach us the lessons
we always thought were worthless...
not realizing they could have been
a warning if promptly heeded:
not to ever struggle with pain and life!
