The Cycle of Maya And Karma
___________________________
I walk this road of scars and pain,
A heart that burns, a mind in reins.
A list of debts I called my own.
With vengeful fire, I played my part,
Revenge a dagger in my heart.
Their suffering became my cheer,
A cruel laugh only I could hear.
-----------------------
One night, in dreams, I soared so high,
Bidding my loved ones a soft goodbye.
Through silver clouds, beyond the sky,
I went to meet my God on high.
I thought He'd greet me, arms open wide,
With love, compassion, as my guide.
To bathe my soul in mercy's light,
To wash away my past in flight.
But as I stood before His throne,
His voice rang cold:
"You laughed at others' pain, now taste the same,
For justice knows no face, no name.
The seeds you've sown are yours to reap,
Not mine to change, not mine to keep."
"But I forgot!" I wept, dismayed,
"My body's gone, my sins decayed."
He shook His head and whispered low,
"The seeds you've sown will always grow."
"No soul escapes the karmic chain,
You must atone and endure the pain.
Now brace yourself, the time is near—
You'll reap the weight of yesteryear."

"But you are God!" I begged, I cried,
"Should love not reign where You reside?"
He gazed at me with knowing eyes,
"A mirror shows no truth but lies.
I give you back what you have done,
Not less, not more—not lost, not won.
Your fate is drawn by your own hand,
A tale you wrote, a life you planned."
"Then how," I asked, "do I break free?"
"Choose kindness now, let vengeance be.
A conscious heart, a mindful soul,
Will mend the past and make you whole.
Not just in deeds but in words and thoughts,
Even silence counts a lot.
Live with love, be light, be true,
And life will bring that back to you."

I woke in tears, the lesson clear,
A soul reborn, new hope sincere.
But Maya came, she cast her spell,
And in her arms, again, I fell.
By morning's light, I became the same
The fire burned within
the heart fuming for revenge
All vows made to God forgotten
all wisdom earned is lost,
A soul still trapped, still paying the cost.
