There are so many things, That I want to do. So many dreams, That I want to chase. There are places, That I want to go! There are times, When I wish I could travel in time. But life doesn’t work that way, For often we are stuck in a rut. Can I just go away, To a place and time of my choice? Why […]

I live life in my own way, A life lived by my own rules. I’m not afraid, Of chasing my dreams. I’m not scared, Of the troubles that come my way. I live in a world of my dreams, Not caring about, What the world has to say.  I can’t live by things, That I do not believe in, I’m what I am, And I […]

I don’t know why, You had to leave so soon. I was a little girl then, And you’d promised,  You’d never leave me alone. I didn’t realize that, Death could make promises break. For I  even didn’t know, What dying would entail, For I didn’t know the cruelty of death. Death took you away from me, And we all know it was too early. But […]

I bury myself at times, In the depths of sorrow, Falling down each time, I try to climb, Out of that never ending pit. And then when I’m happy, I soar and I fly, High above the clouds, My spirit in a state of euphoria, And then I fall again. I oscillate between extremes, Not knowing what normal means. Is it because I take to […]

Lost in a world of my own, While running to catch up with life, I’m too busy to notice, The beauty around me. But today I walk along, With the grass caressing my feet, As the birds break into song, As my eyes glimpse the blue sky. The fragrance of the blooming flowers, Carried by the gentle breeze, Lifts my spirits, And sets my mind […]

Joie de vivre #AtoZchallenge #NaPoWriMo

All of us carry, A bagful of sorrows, And a bagful of joys. But we go through life, Like we are living in vain. We say life is being unfair, And we call ourselves, The only victims, Of life’s injustice. We fail to see, The good things, That come our way.  Because we are stuck, In that moment in past, Or even in the future […]

I long for the life of a wanderer, Travelling distant places. I want to walk on paths less taken, To discover places unknown. I want to run around without a care, While the wind blows through my hair. I want to answer the call of the mountains, And embrace the happy air. I want to feel the waves, As they crash to the shore beneath […]

I often gazed at the night sky, Hoping to see a shooting star. But many a times with cloudy skies, My days often ended in despair. I wanted to catch a glimpse, And wish upon a shooting star. For I thought even with one wish fulfilled, By the shooting star, life would be better. I waited patiently with hope, For that shooting star. A few […]

I wonder how you came into my life, Though we were like night and day, Different in our own way. Like night and day, That could never be together, We journeyed towards different destinations. But destiny had its plan, And we met. Look where it has brought us now. Like the burst of colour in the sky, When day meets the night at sunset, Our […]

#AtoZChallenge : A reflection

#AtoZChallenge : A reflection

First things first. Yay! I completed the A to Z Challenge! I have taken up the challenge twice before and completed it. So this was the third time – a hart-rick! I’d decided last year around this time that I’d take up this challenge this year too. I’d also told myself that I’d plan ahead so that I’d have nothing to worry about during the […]
