Maya Myth

Born alone in this place...
Earth which we call home. Though we know
that one day,
all will end and we will leave
all alone like we had been born.
Then why do we all fall
in the same old trap
of love, affection, care...all maya!
Why do we turn nostalgic?
What are its values?
Hanker after materialistic things
but cannot take them.
Then why? A question
All answers seem to jumble
Unable to solve...
...It's all about MAYA!
