Once 
this road of life 
was soft and smooth 
lined up on both sides 
by verdant trees of love and shade 
through which we 
trod along hands in hands.
Those were days we 
enjoyed the sweet breeze, 
fragrance of the flowers 
and fruits with our 
hearts full to the brim.
Now 
this road of life
has turned crater-filled 
along which we tread 
along a tediously 
dangerously, haphazard path 
with the old trees of love and shade 
seen nowhere
which are replaced by 
lines of concrete demons of hatred, 
indifference and mutual suspicion.   
Fortunately or unfortunately 
being a man who is a 
witness of both what is left is to sit 
with my tongue tied
looking forward to the uncertain future……...
