Volume IV:: April, 2002

 

Why……..? 

Why is it hard,
So hard to believe
The reality, which is
No sweeter than sugar,
Nor it is as soft as a petal?

Why do people cry,
Cry for their life,
Which is no more
Than two days,
Yet, they stay alive
To love and to be loved?

Why do flowers bloom,
So beautiful and so gentle,
When it is for sure,
To die out as time rolls by
With no charm and no life?

Why do people fall in love,
Dreaming of a blissful life,
Surrounded with bed of roses
Which certainly will change
Into bunch of thorns,
When the eyes are wide open?

And why? Why is it hard to forget,
Forget the person once you loved so much
Expecting nothing in return,
And now you realize
You were not even cared for?
