Destined

 Your birth , your life, your struggles , your strife

 Your work, your positions, your living conditions

   It be  easy or  it be tough

  You have less or more than enough

  Your times of fun,  your tasks to be done

  Are all well written and well defined

 Is  a matter of destiny and fate combined

To be there at that time , you were so destined !

To be lonely in a crowd, still laughing out loud

To struggle every step, still beat every storm cloud ,

To have things  very easy,  still moan and protest

To get what you want, still fuss and detest

Some are blessed , but   some declined

Is a matter of destiny and fate combined

To be there at that time , you were so destined!

To be some one’s son or daughter was it in your hand?

To meet a special person, is it simply a coincidence?

To ignore something you want, and appreciate what you get

To welcome all life’s offerings , with no regret

To continue your choice  of daily grind

Is a matter of destiny and fate combined

To be there at that time , you were so destined!

Your mind goes numb, when there was no reason to

Your heart does not listen , like you want it to

Your actions just happen as if out of the blue

You end up  doing things you don’t wish to

Your words are forced ,your thoughts designed

Is a matter of fate and destiny combined

To be there at that time , you were so destined.

Things and people around you are there as scriptured

In your painting of  life , they are so pictured

You call them by some name,  share your glory and fame

But there are few others,  you always have on your mind

Is a matter of fate and destiny combined

To be there at that time, you were so destined.
