The game

Hues and shades; colours and grey

Life is a game, people change and play

Wary and bewildered, I take a step

Love and trust are keys of the game

They smile and hug, they tell tales of myth

I believe, I embrace for I am obtuse

Slowly I realize they played the game

They conquered; they won and left me astray

I begged, I cried for my purpose was their stay

They laughed and walked away

I waited with hope, my eyes going dry

A stranger lent his shoulder to lean and cry

I forgot to cry, I forgot to smile

Scared to walk with the stranger

I sat by the milestone and waited for the change

Life is about building the blocks or breaking it

I decided to block all the way

The stranger broke his way in

He smiled and pulled me out to the road

Neither did he promise nor did he say a word

Here we are walking together

Waiting for the future to unfold!
