Life,no joke

It lands you nowhere

rather boomerangs from anywhere

you are gripped with the fear

with the guilty conscious you can't go near

 

no doubt, it happens with everyone

but can be blamed no one

we follow on the same footsteps

and never stop the falsehood

 

it lands you in trouble

and forces you to struggle

with no direction in sight

nothing comes in your way to delight

 

hide nothing

but pursue the right thing

it shall always bring

the trust and confidence along

 

Life is no joke

but simple stroke and jolts

if one tries to prove dishonest

and still expects the best
