The dejected mind

 A bird was I,

flying out far and wide.

As and when I wanted,

to and from my eyrie.

Dancing in the sunshine was I,

as the dark clouds came by.

Wary was I,

of the looming obstacles.

But within minutes,

down was I,

in the midst of a sandstorm,

like a pushed down mind in anomaly.

Losing hope minute by minute am I,

Waiting for some help.

Yearning am I,

To fly out far and wide again.

Life….

Life is a maze,

in which all people race.

Becoming first,

by making someone last.

Never caring, never helping,

With selfishness and pride.

Taking deep roots,

in the foundation of their mind.

Never trust them,

cheaters are they.

With the dark shadows of ego and jealousy,

in their cold heart and brains.

But never lose hope,

Facing loses after loses.

Ignore the traitors.

Never mind the selfish world.

Keep faith, have belief in thee.

For your rise comes from within thee.

Don’t be puppets of self-centered opportunists,

For this is your life.
