THE WAY ENDS HERE

My name is name.
I have lived 38 years.
I am an outcast for my society.
I am a zero for my family.

My way ends here.
Under the bright sky,
Above bare earth.
I smelt the sandal of many
Dust flew from there.
I closed my eyes.
My way ends here.

My way ends here.
People laughed and scoffed.
Men and women trembled.
Children saw the horror on my face.
My way ends here.



My way ends here.
I’ve no place to go.
I’ve got nothing to be happy.
I tilted my head, looked around
I met neither sympathy nor empathy
In any eye.
But fringes of robs.
My way ends here.

Heavens opened, no more dust
I heard a calm voice
 Through the glistening tears.
I choose to fall. It said.
I choose to heal. It said.
He raised me up.
My way ends here.
My way begins here.
It’s a way of hope.
(Ref. Mk. 1:46-52)
