Not Destined For Each Other
Game of god or a way of life …
Fate left me so weak and tiny.
Forbidden love ; a trick of life.
Passion alights in brevity.
Years back , decision hard I made.
Game of god or a way of life …
A last kiss and goodbye I bade,
Shattered, I could not be his wife.
Lived in hope ; love has afterlife.
He came back to hold me in maze
Game of god or a way of life …
At my door he stood like in daze.
Patient! Time stood with nurse's word.
Ethic was fighting emotion,
His wife sat beside him. Absurd!
Game of god or a way of life …
