Life Poem by Dr. Yogesh Sharma

Life

Rating: 5.0


It is said to be my life,
Free to color and enjoy,
As I cherish.

Is it true?
It is all fictitious, meaningless,
As all are flawed.

Miles away from truth.
It is only an illusion.
And beyond the grip of time and place.

Good to delight a beguiling child,
With a kite,
But do not know to fly.

Life is like a balloon,
Hallow and empty,
Ready to burst and deceive.

And we are only a puppet
In the hands of cruel fate,
Who enjoys this joke?

I don't think we are puppets in the hands of cruel fate. We design out our fates, don't we? Our deeds turn out to be our fates. If we do good, our fates will turn out to be good and if we do bad, it will turn out to be the other way, full of misery.
