When my Life Changed
In midst of my journey of life
Starkly I was shattered by fate
With the razor-sharp blade of knife,
Harshly hurled in hands of Hades.
After two long-stretched surgeries
Within the short span of ten days
For curled intestines, with worry
And acute pains, supine I lay;
For months I stayed gazing at sky
Seeking divine grace and mercy,
To shine strength on me to stand high
And rain on me His clemency.
Ever since my life changed for good:
No more my force I could recoup
No more taste of fast fatty foods,
But just the flavour of light soups;
No more the tang of sweetish treats
No more savour of salty feasts,
Gone were days of strolling on streets
With acute pains, the body fleeced;
Days turned into darkness of nights
Amidst the wrath of wild winters,
Despite the rays of sunshine bright
Cold were days of sparkling summers.
On hindsight, the change in my life
Pitched me closer up to the sky
With flame of faith lighting my strife,
Gems of hope shining in my eyes;
Was the change ways of divine will
To field me close to the sublime,
Or payment of debt with a chill,
Only He can disclose to Time.
