Walk Away With An Empty Hand.

It is an endless wait

would have to bear it

for how many years

I do not know

it is going to go down

the generations in all

we being the first

pass on to our children

then to the grandchildren

from a voluminous form

it shrinks into a paltry

finally turns to nothing

is it the destiny ?

one has to remain with hands tied

spreading out involves money

most times the expenditure

turns not fruitful and worthy

becomes a tedium in years

a  withdrawal descends

we like to abandon the whole

walk away with an empty hand.
