All things life prepared me for!

All things life prepared me for, included wars, but not failures
As if men and women only failed on Mars
And on Earth they were only meant and programmed to win.

All things life prepared me for, had me drool over dreams that they saw,
As if my imagination was incapable of imagining sun make love to water and turn the entire ocean into gold
But, you see on Earth, dreams are made of concrete, desires are components of unwanted ties and emotions are always considered as fatal as cyanide.

All things life prepared me for, were not meant for me,
I just wanted to be,
in a home not house
in Delhi not Noida
in ecstasy not cage
in bandages not heavy drapes
in trans not senses
in college not school
in ocean not balconies
in being not body
in atoms not chemicals
in rhyme not whine
in life not trap.

All things life prepared me, was for a house
Made up of four walls and a ceiling only,
While I was meant for home,
a place which would possibly be
A cross between passions and unfinished novels.
