Bhartendu Second - Without Fight

You gave up
too early

desires belied
you
your stamina betrayed

you were a warrior
calm and brave

I never expected
the storm was stronger
or the waters really fatal

The road you rided
that day
was not everybody's food

you gave up too early
to make
things difficult for ever.
