Daily Prompts: Misstep

Write a new post with today’s one-word prompt.

Misstep

One misstep landed me in the gutter

You deserve there I heard a voice mutter

I say,  shh quiet

go do your diet

One day I will teach you how to utter!

…………………………….:)

 

song, singer Hemant Kumar, Language: Bengali,translated by Ranu

The pole star questions me

How long will I be confused

I could not reply except

My life is spent looking for my destiny!

………………………….

As if someone gave me  some hope out of love

Which is why the light of the sun

was extinguished

I waste my time following my shadow

To my dismay I find one day

My shadow and I are defeated!

…………………………..

I’m not looking for my fate

But my fate is looking for me

It understands what my mind does not

I see everything moving around me

I am the only one who has no direction!

The pole star questions me

How long will I be confused!
