Ahh!

Ahh! The vagaries of life

The ups and downs of life

They never tell you when they would come.

Ahh! The ups they feel like going down a slope

In an exhilarating, fast, adrenaline pumping ride

All the enjoyment, the flush, excitement, raw pleasure

You can ever imagine is what you receive…

But no rides last long……

It’s the downs…..

That feels like climbing up the Everest

And on reaching the summit a sense of hollowness that sets in

No matter how long my ups may be…..

Why is it always that the downs cast a shadow longer than any Goliath…..

Maybe it’s the sense of hollowness that grips you…..

Or maybe it’s the feeling whether what you did during your ups.…..

The best part is you are left wondering whether what you did during your ups was anything but worthwhile.

The uncertainty that grips you rips you of your confidence

To me this uncertainty seems unending……

Extend Thy hands and hold me for I am a son of yours…..

Lead me to light and not to these two crooks…

Lead me to knowledge and wisdom which extends beyond this…..

O Father! Lift me and save my soul from the eternal fire of worldliness……

Protect me from vices and if not yourself make me but a shadow of yourself
