The ringing of the alarm, Wakes me up from slumber deep. I try to get up despite the bed’s charm, Which makes me want to go back to sleep. The rays of the morning sun, Shine through my window. As the gentle morning breeze, Beckons me to go out for a run. My laziness I cast aside, As I put on my shoes […]
I may not be, The way you want me to be. For you only see, How different I turned out to be. I never chose follow, For I walked on paths different. But with your judgement so hollow, My success, to you was insignificant. I was often made the reason for disgrace, For with my ways you couldn’t agree. But my differences I […]
Dark clouds gather in the sky, Like all the worries that cloud my mind. To hold myself together I try, While the trees sway to the gusts of the wind. I see a flash of lightening, The rumble of the thunder. But what seems more frightening, Are my fears that pull me asunder. > Like the drops of rain that began to fall, Tears […]
Our paths crossed at destiny’s bidding, And I was glad that we met. But now I stand at the same old place waiting, For you to return! I look for the news of your arrival, In the whisper of the wind. For you are the hope for my survival, The only one that I can find. The wind blows of its own accord, […]
Life runs past me faster than it should, I try to catch up but fail miserably. If there is one thing I wish could do, I’d tell time to slow down a little. For there are days when I feel like doing nothing, While the clock ticks away without a care. The sun may shine bright and it could be a beautiful day, But […]
On a summer morning, While I hurry to ensure that I’m not late, There come back memories without warning, Of those summer days, when life was great. Remember those days, when exams were over, And we treated ourselves to ice-creams and candies, While making plans to pack bags and go over, To grandma’s place to have the time of our lives? Do you […]
The chain of thoughts in my head, Sometimes do not find a voice. Some things are better left unsaid, Leaving me with no choice. But I can’t keep them within, I’ve to let it all out. In words I find solace, Words are all I have. In poetry I often seek comfort, Both in happiness and in sorrow. For there’s a feeling of satisfaction, […]
Like the grains of sand in my hand, Memories fall down while I try to hold them close. Sometimes I wish I could turn back time, To the days I chose. There are days when I put myself together, With a broad smile on my face. But sometimes, memories haunt and tears fall, As I crave for the warmth of your embrace. I […]
I know that one day, I’ll reach for the sky. I know that it is a long way, Yet I will try! My dreams guide me on, When my struggles bring me down. But like the darkness before dawn, With rays of the sun, it will be gone. Problems and setbacks will come my way, But I believe that I’ve the strength to […]
When life seems to be dull and grey, When nothing seems to be going right, Will you just stay, Looking at life in black and white? Will you wait for someone, To add colour to your life? Or will you be the one, Who’ll make it alright? Spread a smile, Wipe a tear. Walk an extra mile, Live without a fear. For […]
