Caught in Tornado

Recently I had come across a news item which showed miseries faced by a particular family torn by several tragedies. The story was heart rending and it kept haunting me for days. In my own way I'll try to say what the lady of that house was saying in between sobs.


One feels really lost,
As the years fly by, life amidst,
Tears fill the mind,
As the heart takes the brunt.

One moves ahead, wobbling,
With the filth of grief engulfing,
The rest of what is left,
Of this misery called life.

Tossed up and down,left and right,
In an ocean of plain bitterness,
One is left struggling for breath,
With only one thing in wait.
