Commiseration

Wishes
transformed
into
fears in life!

Distorted,
misinterpreted,
wasted
and
blown away...
to a land
of nothingness..
like the
serene,
silent
marooned deserts!

Life resembles
a satire
of destiny.

The castle
of my desires
after a
jungle fire
is wrecked
and
in ruins is
left behind!

Each dream
my child,
of nurture, of care...
dies premature,
leaving me nowhere!

I mourn !
