Oh! Aching pleasure, Thou art a killing healer in strife br Thine comforting claws doth relieve me of mine pain br Like a surgeon, thou amputate mine with a sharp knife br Thou hast made my aching wound purged by this rain br br Life to me seemed a sweet sad saga till now br The peace and comforts are but an elusive a hope br So I endeavoured to sustain here some how br Waiting to be free like an escaped convict in rope br br Hope and grief alternate their roles quite often br And make me remain in contention for this race br The harsh healing wounds of words did soften br My hardened heart hath not a choice but to face br br The ultimate realization that I ever did lack - br ‘Life is a rainbow which also includes black’br br MERAJ UDDINbr br
