Day 12 - Part 2

I thought this day would never end!!

I started going on early morning walks [from today :)], accompanied by an extremely nosy and gossip mongering neighbour. The girl just has to rant about who wore what and did what and said what every second of a conversation [ which usually is a monologue if I'm on the other end ].
I did not know anyother way to keep her quiet, so I put on my headphones and she got the message :D

I was also planning on crash dieting, when my guruji effectively scared me that I will put on double the weight I lose after I quit the diet. (:O), so I made sure I ate properly today.
Classes cancelled again!! No surprises there.

My grandma's brother fell down and I was posted on look-after duty at her place the whole day...


I had a chance to browse my old writings.. And I hit upon my favorite one...


The Fates....



Where goes a slain hero and why?


The former answer is available not.


The answer to the latter.......


Fates rule life....


God has given us no choices,


"Given our choice we would raise our voices", says a soul.


"Against god?", is what I ask.


Getting an answer is a mammoth task.


Says the same soul - "There is no end to the misery that God giveth.


Given a choice , I would choose happiness to get."


Asks the soul -


"When will sadness end? When will the rules be bent?"


Acceptance is the way ,


But who listens to this say...


To all this and more, I am immune..


To this tapestry of life, I have been sewn.


No one escapes the Fates...


Happiness is but a bait -


Thrown by God , for accepting life and its ways...


"When will the book of Fates be shut?", The soul questions.


I reply... when the threads of the tapestry will be cut.....

PS: I end abruptly, for the lack anything else to say. :) Do rate the poem :)

a slain hero goes to heaven i think...
coz heroes die doing somethin good...

on the other hand, if there has been more evil than good in his life, then.. he might go to hell also...

life is sewn different for different ppl..
depending on the sewing, the thread can be cut :)

i rate it good.. can be better though, and i know Pri can do it better too :)
