Puzzled Life...

Life is at which stage?
Neither I feel like a free bird,
Nor like a bird in a cage.

Life is on which path?
Neither do I show my happiness,
Nor do I express my wrath.

Life is on which curve?
Neither do I wish to hate,
Nor do I feel the Love.

Life is under which account?
Spending I can’t avoid
Earnings yet to zero count!

Anyway, whose life am I leading?
Neither do I feel involved,
Nor do I feel like involving!

Am I a Good Friend?

I often go on wondering
And forever keep on thinking,
Am I a good friend?
But I get no answer in the end.

Always I help someone or the other,
What efforts for that I take, I don’t bother.
But the question still comes to a dead end
Am I really a good friend?

Sometimes I am a selfish person.
Often I hurt many without a reason.
Rude remarks to a few I send.
Does that make me a good friend?

Thus, options often rise and fall,
As situations change once and for all.
Finally I say friends are all for fun.
And I myself am a friend of all and a friend of none!

Money Mind

When I had plenty and plenty of it,
I never knew how important it was to have it.

But now when I don’t have it anymore,
I need it more and more.

It may sound all very funny.
Believe me, I am talking about money!

I often wondered and thought,
Why men for money fought?

Now experience has taught me a lot,
That I need mostly money a lot!

I felt money is not everything,
Now, without money everything is nothing!

You may feel I talk something odd,
But believe me as you do in GOD!

I Never Could...

I never could act what I wanted to enact
I never could say what I wanted to speak
I never could get what I wanted to have
I never could see what I wanted to watch
I never could hear what I wanted to listen
But, thank GOD!
I can at least write whatever I want to!
