Life

On By Veera

Back after a long time..

O life!what art thou? 
A flawless flaw of the Lord?
A veil that can’t be unveiled,
For beyond its borders
Awaits an abyss of unknown. 

O life! What art thou?
A shapeshifter that shackles
Mere mortals to fates untold
A shapeshifter shackled
By the chains of just chaos.

Bewitched by bottomless boards
Of hope, to see paradise,
Some wander, while some
Beguiled by formless fear
Of hell’s hollows, roam.

Destiny shall deliver
The deserving, their desires,
So say mindless minds
Too weak to weave their own way
From threads of today,

For a crystal ball reveals
My reflection, nothing more,
But conveys no less
Than what life’s taught me throughout –
I forge my fortunes.
