Double Edge of Life



-as you struggle
-to be up there
-somebody is watching
-to jump at your fall
-someone is there also
-eager and heartfully waiting
-to embrace your achieved dreams
-double edge of life prompts;
-your carefullness does not
-prevent your fall like a leaf
-falling off unknown off the tree..
-your carelessness does not
-sometimes change fortunes
-of ones shrewded destiny..
