Gripping my hand
In unison I tried
Not to flinch
Slashing my nails in
Fist to forget about
Where these lines
Imprinted on my palms
Were heading.
My momentary struggles
To read a secret
Clue in these lines
Did nothing
To pause
The oscillatory
Rhythm of life.
Instead it
Ended up
Hypnotizing my
Conscience to
Believe in the good
Written in these lines.
Reassuring me to
Forget about curiosity
Fumbled up in me &
For a change
Acknowledge the blind future
With open arms of
Optimism.
Vowing me not to
Glance back
At fortune-hunters
Bribing to sabotage
The already crippled
Relation with the
Supreme power
Who always have
The best of plans
For us.
Provided we have
The patience to
Endure the
Wait to gain
The best.
