THE ROAD LESS TRAVELED

i had to play a maze
it was my life,not just a haze
i was standing in daze
on a road,dividing into two ways....

one of the paths,i had to choose
the choice will be my fate,for the rest of my use
both had the same start and the end
in what they differ,was the hardships to defend....

i made my pick....with a fear
a hoarse laughter,then,i hear
i knew my fate had played its part
and it hit my heart,like a dart....

then,a loud voice told me the rest
what my fate chose was the worst at its best
't was the devil's maze,unrivaled and unparalleled
what i chose
was THE ROAD LESS TRAVELLED....

i began with my expedition to heaven
the road was gloomy and dark,like a demon
thorns and creatures,poison and mud
i was all wet,drenched in my blood....

in the way,a fairy appeared
her glow and beauty was what i feared
sent by god,a help in a human form
to fight my way,up to the heaven's dorm....

at the very first sight,i fell in love
serene and white,like a dove
she touched my wounds,her touch so gentle
the pain vanished,as if a temporary mantle....

she looked into my eyes and held my hand
stepped before me on that thorny land
the ruthlessness was pouring like rain
she was clearing my way,by swallowing the pain....

i was weak,caught in her spell
she was hurt and bleeding like hell
covering me like a shell
whispering sweet nothings to me,
to hide her yell....

a large gateway ahead,it screeched
the gateway to heaven,i had reached
i looked at my angel,by whom i was preached
still holding my hand..then...i felt the breach.....

she collapsed....there in my arms
i felt my heart suffered a thousand qualms
her eyes closed,her skin so pale
the life from her body,went out on bail....

i kept on looking at her,could do that for years
her face was getting cleaned,by the rain of my tears
in my arms was my love,behind were my fears
ahead was my destiny,for which i had suffered for years....

after thinking hard,i rose to my feet
i turned around,challenged my defeat
started my way back,to the very beginning
devil's mind....was now dribbling....

"o devil...you fool!!!
now,its your turn to drool
as long as i have life
as long as i live
i'l continue this journey
from the start to the cliff....

all my life..I'll do it again and again
i don't need heaven for my selfish gain
and do you know,what will i get in addition to pain????

a lifetime to spend on that ROAD LESS TRAVELLED
WITH MY ANGEL,MY LOVE,MY FANE!!!!!"
