The Narrow Gate – written by D. Sarkar 24th June 2013

The road is wide
The door opens easily
Go on through
But it won’t lead to mystery

The harsher road
The narrow gate
It takes time to pass through
And you cannot wait

Take the easy option
It uses no strength
You won’t learn much
But it’s less intense

Not a lot to gain
As you plod along
What’s the sense in that?
Life will not move on

So take up the challenge
Equipped with determination
Face the difficult road
Reach your true destination

Struggle through the gate
Even if you have to crawl
Realise the harsh reality
Pick yourself up when you fall

Growth is gained as you try
And in life that is the key
Don’t let the path defeat you
Achieve your destiny

The Light Ahead - written by D. Sarkar 12th June 2013

My body tires
As illness sets in
A battle I fight
As I want to win

I still have dreams
Things I want to do
Experiences I want to have
Wishes that haven’t come true

I know who I am
I know what I believe
I probably could do better
But I’m proud of what I’ve achieved

As I rest myself
I recall not long ago
Moments of elation
That really let me glow

My family and friends
My home and my possessions
My loves, my hates
These are all reflections

Of who I was and who I am
And who I want to be
Life is my motivation
And soon I’ll solve its mystery

My time here is not forever
And I don’t know what I will see
But I know I have to say goodbye
And I will leave my legacy

My legacy is me, a memory
Warm in the hearts of many
And as I let go, I hope they know
I’ll be with them for eternity

So as the light brightens
And the body I have fades
My spirit will be enlightened
And peace upon me will cascade
