A LOOK AT LIFE-87 BY-Smruti Ranjan Mohanty HE No one was with me No one is with me No one will be with me Except Him at whose lotus feet I have surrendered my life. Karmic debts and deposits Sorrow, happiness and anguish Over the years My love and tears Longing and relationship Had been but marriages of conveniences Permutations and combination for a better deal No one was bad, no one was good No one my friend, no one my enemy Nothing but my priorities Defined me and my relationships My relationship was as transitory As my passion and infatuation Only for a period of time Wilted like night jasmine Love, romance, relationship Everything has changed Everyone faded Including me But not He who is beyond time He has been there since the day I am His love and concern has never changed My relationship with Him is as fresh As it was long back when we last met On the other side of infinity My Lord! I am beaten and betrayed every moment But again fall in love forgetting What happened yesterday My father! you graced me I could realise the futility of the game But I am still in the game Give me the will and strength to come out of it From illusion to reality From darkness to light To be at your feet With nothing bothering me from outside Smruri Ranjan Mohan ©Smruti Ranjan Mohanty
