THE WEB
Time slips from my hands
I make castle out of sand
A powerful wind sweeps it away
And all my efforts are in vain.
Sadness is in the air
Everything seems hard to bear
Wherever I go shadows follow me
In this darkness nothing I can see.
Dreams are broken
Hopes are shattered
Gone are those days
When one could reckon.
Painful heart, tearful eyes
Are not the things that you need to survive.
As efforts lose their way
I think problems are here to stay.
That cheer on face, that twinkle in the eyes
And that frequent smile - all faded away
And today as I see myself, I’ve nothing but dismay.
The setting sun is not followed by a moonlit night
Even the stars are nowdays not that bright.
These clouds make this night dreadful and dark
After every few steps , I’ve to make a new start.
At the end of this journey where do I reach?
Was this that I dreamed to achieve?
My belief is shaken,
And the faith weakens,
In this sad heart of mine
A piercing pain deepens.
Unanswered questions, probing thoughts
In what dreary situation am I caught?
Desires,dreams,hopes and aspirations
May not always take one to his destination
Effort may lead one’s way,
But success is not what follows always.
Whatever I think, whatever I do,
My mind accepts just one thought
That in this web I am caught,
In this web I am caught
I make castle out of sand
A powerful wind sweeps it away
And all my efforts are in vain.
Sadness is in the air
Everything seems hard to bear
Wherever I go shadows follow me
In this darkness nothing I can see.

Hopes are shattered
Gone are those days
When one could reckon.
Painful heart, tearful eyes
