PENANCE In this desert of life I burn Yet
rain clouds forever taunt me My
eyes from a glaring sun I turn Yet
the darkness always haunts me. Sleep
to me is a distant luxury Yet
dreams dance upon my roof Even
happiness passes by in a flurry With
loneliness I stay not aloof. I
have no enemies to hide from Save
my immediate distant past I
too to destiny do belong For
in this world I last. I
tried to steal a little while And
nearly got away And
upon those memories I smile A
happiness which cannot stay. Nothing
will now cut This life delivering show For
existence is nothing but A death delivering blow. ~Vikram~
