Written Affair : Why Me?

Imagine yourself, facing problems in every direction you turn... What would you do? Most people turn to God and ask him - 'Why Me?' But then, God never answers... not directly at least. He does drop in hints which we fail to see... And thus we continue questioning his motives... This poem is about those endless questions we ask him...
But then, do answer yourselves after reading the poem, whether you still have the faith in him? Whether you still trust him?

Whenever I am happy
You leave me all sad...
I ask you... why?

Whenever I dream
You wake me up...
I ask you... why?

Whenever I smile
You leave tears behind...
I ask you... why?

Whenever I decide
You leave me all confused...
I ask you... why?

Whenever I am ready to choose
You take the options away...
I ask you... why?

Whenever I try to mingle
You leave me all alone...
I ask you... why?

Whenever I see rosebuds
You show me the thorns...
I ask you... why?

Whenever I speak
You leave no one to hear...
I ask you... why?

Whenever I leave
You block my way...
I ask you... why?

Whenever I question
You never reply...
And I ask you... why me again??

Written Affair : All Alone

This poem highlights the fact that whatever we do in our life time, we still come alone in this world and leave alone. No one accompanies us in either of these two situation, but human beings are still afraid of being alone... They forget, that they themselves are the only people who stay with themselves till the end and then afterwards and thus never enjoy the lone time they get... A baby born, Comes alone... Then why does he, For a company craves... So why does he, For some love craves...? Why does he wants, To be accepted... Why does he needs, To be wanted...? What does he need,  Friends for... What does he fear,  Making enemies for...? Why does he smile, When he finds someone... Why does he cry, On loss of someone...? Why does he have to, Feel lonely... Why, when no one's around Should he want some company...? For an old man dead, Dies all alone...!
