Just to say a hi to Saheeba. Hope you are doing well. Wanted to post this poem written by Sitara some days ago in a diff. thread.
Lost And Found
My carefree spirit, I lost,
to the winter of maturity;
My childhood dreams,
vanished with reality.
The confidence of youth,
the bliss of ignorance,
all disappeared,
with the dawn of knowledge.
Freedom of thought,
word and action,
entangled in the web of despair.
Despair: A time wrought with agony,
a disillusionment of life.
A change so permanent,
everything that was, is not.
Values dissolved by
the tides of life.
Even a smile, buried deep
Everything that was built,
destroyed stone by stone;
Unraveled thread by thread,
Every bit of love,
squeezed by hands of fate.
But
From the debris, I have salvaged my soul;
from death, a new life;
From tears, a flicker of a smile;
From destruction, a rebirth;
From the past, a future;
From Was, to Am
Each a lesson on its own..
Well taught by the teacher himself;
Life, the Greatest Guru of them all.

Lots Of Luck.
