There Is a Time
There is a time,
I saw oceans becoming dry,
Rivers standing still,
Mountains becoming smaller
And beauty becoming vague,
Taking away my beatific smile;
Yes there is a time,
When darkness penetrated my defenses
Making me shiver in my deepest thoughts
Creating doubtful atmosphere
As life becomes everyday burden,
Making me feel trapped by evil times;
That was a time,
I couldn't see beyond my clouded mind
Reality becoming mysterious force
Interfering with my daily routine
And obstructing me from rising in befitting manner;
There is a time, but hopefully
There will be a time
When I could revive my gleeful laugh,
Feel free like clear blue sky
As I see my beguiling smile on the mirror,
And spread that joy to the joyless
