To be or not to be
I perceive the Woods are wild, dark and deep,
Silver Dark clouds have been hanging all around!
The glimpse of stars and skies are obscure to me,
I can only witness lightening and heed of thunder!
There is no sign of humanity or life around,
There are no sounds of squeaks or roars!
The trembling of the leaves is so leisurely, that,
I can hear the sounds of my heart beats aloud!
I feel, I have lost the sense of direction,
I believe I have no sight of the lane ahead!
Legs have lost sense and the body is chilled,
Stuck at crossroad, astray on my way to home!
No wonder my sleep has vanished for months,
No hankering to fill my guts or quench my thirst!
My pleadings, the Great Lord has graciously ignored,
But I wonder why I have been yearning to live on!
Perhaps I had a distant hope of some divine reprieve,
May be I was convinced that a good old Charlie will,
One day for the sake of old camaraderie emerge,
Out of nowhere, to steer my way out of darkness!
Well now, there is no wise bird left in the Jungle,
Who could be reliable, forth coming with a proposal!
Anticipation of gloom, prospects of misery and quail,
Have dawned, to challenge my very existence and survival!
Having left no stone unturned in my endeavor to,
Prevent impending collapse and imminent annihilation,
It is high time to pack up the series of brute setbacks,
Alleviate me, my Lord ~ just throw me in Hell and oblige!!
(I have missed my bus in this thick Jungle, and left with
No ambition to travel miles and miles, before I sleep.
My Lord, I know, there will be no place for a worthless
Person like me to be awarded a costly seat in heaven...!)
