A Wrong Assessment Comment on R. A. Pai's "A Wrong Assessment"
© 2002 R. A. Pai
 

The One that I beckoned didn't answer the call
He had built in-between a formidable wall
I should have fought my battles all alone
Than rely on Him, the most elusive One

Many were the travails and tempests I faced
These I would like, from my mind erased
The night was long, fearful and lonely
I had to face it singlehanded, boldly.

The battle then followed and I was victorious
I was the greatest, the most glorious
Self-effort mattered and nothing else, I realised
It was futile to have beckoned the God that failed.

The next night He told me in my dream
"I didn't fail you as you deem,
The wall between us was built by you,
I was all along with you, in the battle too!"
