The Door of Uncertainty

                Took birth at the door of uncertainty 
                         to enter in life continuing journey,
                not even aware of my own identity. 
          From where I came ? where to go, seems most funny ! 
                  
                Body belongs to me and also soul is mine.
                   But at any time, can I raise my voice?
                Though born as human and I am feeling fine,
                    To lead my life was I given any choice?
   
                Through evolution mere probability !
                   Natural happenstances without control ?
                Just only chance or fair possibility,
                    Cycle of life and demise, endless to roll !

               I possess my body, yet temporary !
                    Through door of uncertainty life to greet :
               Any moment may flash, date of expiry.
                     Through door of uncertainty to exit.
