Life

I signed the divorce half-heartedly,

And cried at the court's approval,

I Mercy killed that old sufferer,

And cried at his funeral,

I wrote a thousand poems about you,

And read ‘em a few thousand times and cried.

This is what life gives,

When expectations are out of reach,

I guess.

I shouted at the priest,

For clogging god’s ears

Now Look,he can't hear my desperate prayers..

I had always felt envious of the fate,

For how he wins all the challenges,

Filed against me.

I entered an operation theatre,

To cauterize my bleeds,

I felt numb, even before anesthetizing,

And felt the pain, even after anesthetizing

Little did I know,

That I’m bleeding from the curator of the scalpel himself.
