Eternal Destiny

mohsin ahmed August 15, 2007

Tags: culture , poetry , destiny

i welcome the silence that awaits,
dreaded memories left, i have nothing to give away,
the light called me once, but i turned away my face,
i came back for you, you were the motive in my head,

like decaying bodies, you spread the mutiny,
you laid the mines, that crashed the feelings into pieces,
you
pollute the air, with arrogance you exhale,
i want to escape this paranoia, but time and time i fail,

you were an inspiration, a desire, a belief,
we have expectations and wishes, but sometimes disappointment is what we meet,
most times its bitter, but sometimes its sweet,
but all of the time we betray our selves, we know it underneath,
its life that runs on us, tramples us beneath its feet,
and all we do is complain, cry our sorry pleas,
but times are sour, and we should learn to succeed,
other wise this asylum will be our eternal destiny.
