My destiny beckons me

This is a poem, a free verse actually, I wrote a few years ago, but I don't know why I never posted it anywhere. May be, destiny had planned it to be published as this blog at the end of this UBC challenge!

So here it is.

My Destiny Beckons Me

My destiny beckons me,
But worldly chains keep me bound;
There's still hope in the fading light,
But it is far away at the horizon.

Man proposes God disposes they say,
But it's God's proposal I'm out to seek;
Life surely isn't an easy game,
But it's that way its supposed to be.

Fun, frolic, grandeur and ease,
They are good, but never desired I;
Pain, betrayal, adversity and defeat,
Like clouds they come in many form.

I have no qualms with life,
It's been the best in its ups and down;
I only want to give my dreams a chance,
For the time to do is now or never.

My destiny beckons me,
But worldly chains keep me bound;
There's still hope in the fading light,
But it's far away at the horizon.

  1. Asma, I can SO relate to your poem! We are kindred sisters on that one! May we both reach our dream destinies! :) <3
