WHEN SOMEONE LOOKED BACK…..

Heart failed to wake, mind sublimed to misery, Time’s journey progressed, He never looked back. Raindrops vanished to fury, Someone stood miles away, Embracing peace in pain, forgetting pleasure in vain. ‘Why me!’, shouted the Wind, Once gentle in storm, now violent all along. Wind of the past, the devil of today! Who should look back, dream miles ahead; Why learn history, when all want victory! Insecure tears roamed in horror, When words pierced from North, South, East and West, Leaving scars of fame, plus terror of the game. Someone turned to Wise, pain alone made one wise. Echoes of change, washed away his sins, Seventy-two second melody startled him awake, Lub-Dub flowed the river in rhythm, All this happened, when Someone looked back! To go on forward alone…..
