One Straight Path...

When you cry,
And minutes later lie alone,
Your hand wiping your own tears.
Know then,
That you had just hit upon,
The grim truth of what life is.

Realise then,
That as you came alone,
so shall you go alone.
And that,
Relief does lie in-between,
For everyone else -
but the likes of you.

Know then -
That you are among the "blessed" ones.
For whom HE gives it " real easy".
(No fuss. No frills. No surprises. No novelties)

For the likes of you HE sets,
One straight path.
That's as predictable as it is monotonous,
That too -
From birth till death.
