The Womb of Past

That which passes away Leaves in its trail The shape of things to come to take its place. 0, Past, you have now passed But when the Time stops you come again And repeat yourself. I lived in you in back of time And suffered pangs of life forlorn I looked at Future on the horizon To give me a life which I adorn A wishful thought I learnt in time It never begins nor ends anywhere .We are all children of a fate - That Time usurps and forbear It moves in circle flitting away To us it passes as the past It comes to us as future then By turning circle full & fast We forget miseries, suffering all The past that caused us so much fear In life and death, we can't forget Though wait for you appear. I greet you not as a welcome guest Coming from the womb of past, to my despair, I can not laugh, nor can I weep, I want to strike a deal with you very fair You turn the clock back again to whom I laughed And loved the life without any care.
