Someday somewhere...

Theme/Emotion : Love and Treason

Someday somewhere you meet someone,
Someone you knew long ago
That one person in a billion,
For you who could all forego

Who helped you when you were down,
Made you smile when saw you frown
Believed in you against all odds,
Accompanied you on all rough roads

Left alone miserable in the rain,
Having lived through that pain
You ask that person,
The reason for treason

You wait with baited breath,
Follows a silence harder than death
Far away you hear some bells,
Come back to reality the dawn yells

Because I was told.....

I was told,
To be cold
I was told,
To keep the hold
I was told,
To say what sold

But, I tried the reverse,
All to my own curse
Whatever was real,
Was not ideal
Now i know why they say,
You sometimes learn it the hard way

I wore the mask,
Up and ready for the task
Kept up the pace,
To win the race

Prospered, I toiled,
To fill the unseen void
But my attempts were of no use,
For there was no truce

Then i stumbled upon the forgotten,
The truth dead and rotten

I was told,
To help the old
I was told,
To bring everyone to the fold
I was told,
To nurture the mould

Enlightened I march again,
Oblivious of loss or gain
Without any fear or load,
Because I was told....
