to my awestruck eyes
He was the winner before the battles began
none to my surprise
everything he touched
turned into gold
try to be like him
i was told
i couldnt understand
things simply complying
opportunities falling into his lap
without him seemingly trying
i was sure his lucky streak
would go on forever
till i saw his world spin
one fine day,altogether
i had been foolish
i had been blind
comparing our diverse fates
thus being unkind
i realised life takes just a mini second
from its apparently sureshot path to deflect
i realised no one's life
can ever be Perfect!

Then I realised... when i re-opened my eyes...
ReplyDeleteThey were smiling... "all my sighs"....
when The turth in its best gears ... says hello...beneath the dark dreams ...
burrying all lies..
When Imperfection... Knot the ties...
with bends of life ... to be the apple of eyes...
life takes just a mini seconds to die..
Life is "perfect" I realise...
