Destined

By Kunj Khera

After being aligned, the stars were at stake, for the chosen one

was born to make beautiful mistakes

Just a minor movement was all that it did take, for he is

destined to voyage with trustworthy fate

2:05, 09.12.99 was exactly the time and date, decisions were

discussed among the right ones and the fakes

Little did he know it was a long drive without brakes, he trusted

the wild ambience as it whispered his name

They brainwashed his dreams, indoctrinate, new journeys

within a journey took him really far away

He got clowned and beaten up then beaten up again, he was

forced to play joker who ruled the word insane

Started gambling his life; fuelling on whiskey-cocaine, mornings

got shortened while he darkened every lane

His loved ones were watching him drown in his state, but

nobody was able to mentally relate

Fake masks wearing lucy the evils in saint, ambitions did die as

they took over his sway

Fears, anxiety and depression he gained, self-destruction in

thoughts were hijacking his brain

He screamed, reached out, stumbled and failed; his patience

was tested but devotion prevailed

His warm heart melted the barbed chains, he worked hard

making rainbows from rain.
