Separation Poem by RONY PATRA

Among fallen hopes and broken dreams
Where happiness falls like concrete beams
Distances widen, lives collide
Sadness often doesn’t get a place to hide

Everyone goes away, every person leaves
For the unknown, to see what Destiny weaves
Ideals are shattered, fate turn bleak
All before you get a chance to speak

Child leaves home in search of a new life
Relationships crumble in times of strife
Lives turn haywire, prudence spins out of control
As the Maker observes all through Fate’s keyhole

Separation is the name of this odd game
Which brings both fame and shame
Lefts and rights are traversed by “splitting” pain
Like a sullen river meandering through a plain

None can escape Life’s unending lawlessness
And the manifestation of our roots’ restlessness
Some dreams will meet, others will separate
On this basis will weird Earth operate
