Here is an old ghazal from the Sajha archive on a similar theme. I will, however, point out the optimistic view of the poet in the fourth stanza of the ghazal. The poet is thankful to what the final one day of his life might bring ! Enjoy the whole thread, some two years old, and the atmosphere once upon a time there was in Sajha.. - http://www.sajha.com/archives/openthread.cfm?threadid=7194&dsn=sajhaarchive
