HOW IS LIFE - II

HOW IS LIFE - II

How is life?
It's a compromised life
Without my beloved wife
Memories in giga bytes
Couldn't be moved to a pen drive
Freeing the mind of a haunting lane
Unfaltering faltering gait
I call a spade a spade
With pain in the core of my heart
I have learnt happiness
From my spirit inside
