Unfairness of destiny
Monuments of failure
Torture and suck up all the hope
Engrossed in dismay
You forget to rekindle
Life seems so ugly that eyes
refuse to see
Refuse to search the hidden
beauty, maybe
But, you never know
Beauty lies somewhere
Under wraps, in the multi-layered
destiny
It may kiss you
Touch you tenderly
Like a breath of fresh air
And wake you from the slumber of
sadness
You have touched on what true beauty is here Tarang. Truly beautiful!!
