I DIDN’T KNOWBy Bhakta Raj Giri
I didn’t know that life Would take such a twist, A twist, that never twists. I didn’t know my mother Would be so harsh to me, That she in no way ever calls, me a son. I didn’t know, that door Would get so jammed, That it wouldn’t open Even after many decades.
I didn’t know that fate Would at all times be at that devil’s side, And always strive to push me aside.
I didn’t know that a truthful struggle Keeps on struggling Until there is a struggle in itself.
But at last I found The tinge of life Even at the cavern There is a ray of light And that is with what You and I stay alive.
