Analysis of JOURNEY OF LIFE

Mohanram PV 1967 (Bangalore)



On my way to the Destiny of Life,
with me and my thoughts in Strife.

Ahead is the journey that is unknown,
yet I have to go through it all all-lone.

Complaints were plenty with people and places
for I knew not, How to play my Aces.

Mask on my face with emotions down,
still smiling along without a frown.

Trailing me was the path of pain,
looking forward I see Sunshine & Rain.

End of Journey things look clear,
hope is the one that has got me here.
