In Retrospect

Life can be unforgiving at times, striking this poor innocent soul who never saw it coming. Upside down wasn’t the only wave entailed, thunder strikes simultaneously without losing its intensity, lighting cracked open vividly dark skies and fear is everywhere. Dreams falter by the day, hope disintegrate immensely under the fear and darkness where light seems to hide in the arms of God. Where art thou? What happened? What should I do? The first time in his life, he lost all that he has, everything and everything. An ego so badly bruised that even seven men couldn’t get him on his feet, a man so full of confidence is now nothing but a dead body with a dying soul. ‘How is he going to be himself again?’, whispers a man. ‘No one would be able to be themselves again after this, not a living soul can withstand this horror!’, replies another. Will he ever be the same after this? Will it deter him from achieving greatness no man would ever think bout? or Will he be on his feet in no time? What is left of him?
