A new moment of fortune



Smiley face peeps into heart's window nowadays
And plays the senses with tricky charming ways
What's the big secret I may never know anyway
But all the fuss it brings, the sensations too, sideways
To dwell here and wait like a dying no one in life's desert
I am chilled as ice, my anger lives no more, that red alert
What miracle could people do to you? A tender, sweet hurt
The ash of the past, the sorrows of failure are over, biting dirt
It comes to the day when the goddess of chance bestowed love
On your soul, the cheeky earth's down and a new sky above
A new moment of fortune, holding tight the memory's glove
Oh the song of nightingale, the sweet twinkle in the morning dove
For once, I win, and I am in the highest of all heavens
The world may look wondering, at sixes and sevens
Let the show begin, Let 'em out, my old deal ravens
Tens are goner, the past is shady, bring your sessions
To those who vanished from our lives...
I try to recall my senses, fitter in forgetfulness
All starry ways of queen-the mind shall support
My cause in my casual talks; I remember nothing
New or old, alive or dead all are forgotten forever
By me; Still when I click the innocence of memory
The charms of sanity, and the wealth of senses
All I find is blood and pain; Love and miseries of rain
To whoever tries to stay in- shall meet the people forlorn
The young and the old, the beauty of the brain sold- all dead all gone
I wait in silence, and I long for all those missed ones, loved ones
And of course, the dead ones; Who stay put in silence and quietness
Rose berries and tusk of morning hay- play with the fancy old ray
The quiet ones are gone past long ago from our life and so on they stay
No matter how loud you pray, how long you stay, they answer no way!
Yes, the physical being is gone and the fictional time lives on for us
They are gone- not their presence in the minds of humans like rivers of
Pain and Happiness get coins of smile and remembrance.
For I can't stay in senses and I shall dive into waters of forgetfulness again
Adieu! Yeah your times are up and our times are just behind, till we meet
In heavens forlorn, I bid you a warm farewell, my friends be loved-
Adieu till we see each other in heavens
