~~ Often ~~



Often,
in our life,
we want more than what people can give,
until we almost lose our focus,
and easily keep on blaming...

Too often,
we haven’t realized yet
we like to think that we are right
until we almost forgot
to hear and learn from others...

Perhaps,
not until we stumble down badly
before our ego is too high to be reached
before our mind is too stubborn to be preached
before our hatred for anything is too deep to be dug
we reflect on our acts...

In the end of the way,
shall we hope that we manage
to accomplish what we have to
to forgive and say sorry to anyone we should
and be grateful of what we have...

A deeply introspective poem Soma...Delves deep into the human condition...

P.S.- A minor glitch this but i believe that in the seventh line 'we haven't realize' should either be written as'we haven't realized' or as'we don't realize' for the sake of grammar...
