Age is telling on me and I am counting my days
I do not know why I am remembering my past
Now I am in sheer darkness to count youth rays
Old age in itself is a slow poison no need to blast

What is life a set of shadows moving without reality
Some people throughout their lives remain in trance
What is love and hatred interwoven in useless plea
Opportunist in every nook , corner take but chance

I am a poet hence take all things in true perspective
But still I failed to appreciate just real anatomy of life
I do not know ,what measures to be out of the captive
So I have been injured by daggers and to be on knife
