From the alpha to the omega
in the journey of life we own,
we meet, greet, huddle and shove
friends with people initially unknown.
We make friends with whom
we like many who think and act alike,
from some we learn and some we teach
in diverse ways, not so easy to reach.
The heart misses the beat
on meeting someone full of charms,
the blush and smile say it all long
and bodies await with open arms.
Then ensues endless wait
slow and without much scope,
clinging on to thin threads of hope
making them the life\'s rope.
Topsy-turvy and restive,
rolling up and down,
counting each breath to live
time has really slowed down.
A dear friend became impassive
what should I do to deserve,
to earn her friendship
what purpose should I serve?
