Ups And Downs

Ups and downs, Downs and ups

It is a maze of never ending curves

What we give, shall be returned

A concept still left to learn

Round and round,

We rise and fall

Happiness and despair,

An equation of indefinite affair

The man worries,

stresses and frets

Agonising over

The uncontrollable events

Of actions and accomplishments

Of failures and setbacks

Of emotions and mishaps

Of loss and traps

Looking for a guidance

He bows to the omnipresent

Surrenders himself

Giving away his own self

Attains the divine knowledge,

And Safeguard himself through a harmonious hedge

Understanding that he is a verb,

And not a noun

Following the path,

guided by the light around.
