TOUGH TIMES

A phase like never before,
I was never so negative in life.
Every decision being questioned by me,
Expectations cutting my soul with a knife.
I was never the one to care,
I did not worry about what's next?
But now I am totally confused,
I am blank in this life's test.
No goal in life whatsoever,
My brain is in a mess.
Is it normal? Does it happen to everyone?
Ohh, I am under a lot of stress.
Life has become so uncertain,
Does anyone else feel the same?
I am filled with such de-motivation,
and other feelings which have no name.
Thinking about my future makes me shiver to the toe,
My boat of sanity is sinking and I have completely forgotten how to row.
This is a disaster, a calamity unseen,
Not able to share what I am feeling,
My thoughts are losing it's rein.
I am drowning in my own sorrows,
Not ready to find a way out.
My mind is blocked and I can't think,
The only thing left now is self doubt.
Who will understand? Am I being childish?
Should I behave more maturely?
All these are the questions due to which I am losing my mind surely.
I am afraid that people will mock me,
That they will say I am not even trying.
Is it really that easy though?
Am I a foolish girl who is just crying?
I need some way out, God please help me stay afloat,
I have my family and friends to prove to,
and I don't want to fall off this life's boat.
I talked about self love the most,
Making others believe in oneself,
And now I am questioning my own worth,
All that is left to do is to dwelve.
Family, friends and everyone will care only upto a time,
But in life, it's only you who has to actually squeeze the given lime.
Challenges come and challenges go,
giving us lessons in return.
Just be in your senses and try your best,
So in the end, atleast you'll learn.️

ONE MISTAKE

One mistake,
Is it all it takes?
One mistake,
Oh! I need a break.
One mistake,
And everything you have ever done becomes fake.
One mistake,
And all your future is at stake.
One mistake,
And so many hearts that ache.
One mistake,
Maybe it's forbidden to make.
One mistake,
And so many cries around.
One mistake,
And not any good can be found.
One mistake,
And others negative side awakes.


Yes, One mistake is all it takes.😪

REASON FOR OUR EXISTENCE!

I m a stubborn child,

but they always listen.

When i m upset and about to cry,

their eyes also glisten.

They hold me tight and never let me fall,

with them by my side,

i can get through it all.

Their love and care is immeasurably immense,

with no half heartedness and no pretense.

I m soo pampered and soo carefree,

but its only because they allow me to be.

They try to fulfil every demand of mine,

with their words of assurance everything seems fine.

Why do i always disappoint them,

why do they always understand?

Maybe these questions will be answered when i have my little one in my hand.

i m nothing without their support and guidance,

but my ungratefulness towards them literally hurts my conscience.

I wish i can give them the deserved respect and care,

i never want to see them in stress and despair.

I love them dearly with all my heart,

they are forever mine and i m their part.

AN EPIPHANY

Alone on the streets a girl sat,
Not at all a sight to look at.
Her hair was a mess and her face full of dirt,
And she seemed as if she was badly hurt.
There were some visible scars on her arms and knee,
But the ones bothering her we could not see.
They were deep inside her somewhere,
But in her case no one seemed to care.
She had been hurt again and again,
But there was no one beside her to share the pain.
This mean world had used her when in need,
But always left her alone to bleed.
She was sick of this life and tired of liars,
She wished for a change now to fulfil her desires.
She wanted to be loved, respected and cared,
But the people of this world she now feared.
Suddenly she had a unique epiphany,
Realizing someone loved her in this world of many.
She could trust herself the most for sure,
Ofcourse she knew she could ask for nothing more.
Everything seemed happy and positive,
and finally she found a reason for her to live.
She got up at last forgetting all about her scars,
And walked along the path beneath the twinkling stars.

TRUE FRIENDSHIP

LAUGHING SO HARD MADE ME FEEL ALIVE ONE DAY,

MORE POSITIVE,MORE ACTIVE AND READY FOR ANYTHING YOU SAY.

I FELT LIKE THE HAPPIEST GIRL ALIVE,

FULLY EXPERIENCING THESE EMOTIONS AND NOT FEELING SO NAIVE.

THIS HAPPINESS WAS BECAUSE OF A CRAZY FRIEND,

WHO WAS ALWAYS WITH ME IN EVERY CRACK AND BEND.

SOMEONE WHO LIGHTED UP MY DAY BY JUST A WORD,

YES IT WAS TRUE THOUGH IT SOUNDS ABSURD.

WHILE LAUGHING WITH THAT PERSON I FELT SO FREE,

AS IN THIS WORLD FULL OF HATE I FOUND SOMEONE LIKE ME.

IT WAS NOT LOVE OF FANTASIES FOR SURE,

JUST A PROMISE TO BE TOGETHER FOR LIFE AND MORE.

BEST FRIENDS I REALISED ARE MUCH BETTER THAN LOVERS,

NOTHING IS COMPLICATED AND NO ONE HOVERS.

THE PERFECT RELATIONSHIP I FOUND THAT DAY,

COZ TRUE FRIENDS ARE SOMEONE WHO WILL ALWAYS STAY.

EVEN IF YOU HAVE ONE FRIEND THAT IS LOYAL AND TRUE,

YOU HAVE EVERYTHING IN LIFE AND DON'T NEED ANYONE NEW.

JUST LEARN TO DIFFERENTIATE BETWEEN GOOD AND BAD,

AND THEN YOU'LL HAVE SOMEONE EVEN IF YOU LOST ALL YOU HAD.

THIS IS NOT THE CONCLUSION THIS IS JUST A START,

FOR YOU TO CHOOSE WISELY AND ALSO PLAY YOUR PART.

A SIMPLE LOVE STORY

THERE WAS ONCE A YOUNG GIRL,

SHE WAS WHITE AS SNOW AND PRETTY AS A PEARL.

EVERY GIRL WAS SO JEALOUS OF HER BEAUTY,

AND BOYS DID ANYTHING FOR HER AS IF IT'S THEIR DUTY.

  SHE HAD EVERYTHING SHE WANTED IN LIFE,

ALL SHE NEEDED NOW WAS TRUE LOVE TO SURVIVE.

SHE SEARCHED HERE AND SHE SEARCHED THERE,

BUT HER PRINCE CHARMING WAS FOUND NOWHERE.

FAKE ADMIRERS SHE HAD A TON,

BU AN UNDERSTANDING LOVER SHE FOUND NONE.

SHE FELT DEFEATED AND GOT REALLY UPSET,

UNTIL A RENOWNED SAINT SHE MET.

SHE TOLD HIM HER SORROWS AND ASKED HIM FOR ADVICE,

HE HELPED HER BY GIVING AN IDEA THAT WOULD SUFFICE. 

HE TOOK ALL HER BEAUTY AWAY FOR A WEEK,

AND TOLD HER THAT HELP FROM PEOPLE SHE SHOULD NOW SEEK.

MANY SHOOED HER AWAY AND MANY DIDN'T RECOGNIZE HER,

SHE WAS HEART BROKEN AND CRIED TILL HER VISION WAS BLUR.

SHE WAS TAKING SHELTER UNDER A TREE,

WHEN SHE HEARD A SOUND OF DESPERATE PLEA.

SOMEONE WAS IN TROUBLE AT THE OTHER SIDE OF THE HILL,

SHE FELT A LITTLE SCARED BUT WENT TO HELP STILL.

A BOY HER AGE WAS BLEEDING PROFUSELY,

SHE RAN TOWARDS HIM AND LOOKED AT THE WOUND CLOSELY.

IT WAS A VERY DEEP CUT AND HE WAS CRYING IN PAIN,

SHE TRIED CALMING HIM DOWN BUT ALL WAS IN VAIN.

THEN SHE TORE A PIECE OF CLOTH FROM HER DRESS,

THOUGH SHE WAS ALL BLOODY NOW BUT SHE COULDN'T CARE LESS.

SHE TOOK CARE OF HIM UNTIL HE WAS WELL,

MEANWHILE THE BOY WAS TOTALLY UNDER HER SPELL.

THE GIRL ALSO STARTED FEELING SOMETHING FOR SURE,

AND AS THE DAYS PASSED THE FEELING FOR HIM GREW MORE AND MORE.

FINALLY THE WEEK PASSED AND THE SAINT RETURNED,

AND INTO A BEAUTIFUL GIRL AGAIN SHE TURNED.

THE BOY WAS AGHAST TO SEE HER TRANSFORMATION,

BUT HE WAS ALSO OVERWHELMED WITH GREAT EMOTION.

FINALLY THE GIRL FOUND SOMEONE WHO HAD FALLEN FOR HER HEART INSTEAD OF HER FACE,

AND SHE THANKED GOD FOR BLESSING HER WITH HIS EXTRAORDINARY GRACE.

SHE ALSO THANKED THE SAINT FOR EVERYTHING,

AND SOON THE COUPLE WAS TIED IN THE MATRIMONIAL STRING.

THE GIRL AND BOY WERE ALWAYS TOGETHER IN EVERY ENDEAVOR,

AND LIVED A HAPPY LIFE FULL OF LOVE THAT LASTED FOREVER.

MOOD SWINGS

SOMETIMES WE FEEL UPSET WITHOUT A CAUSE,

IS IT BECAUSE OF OUR PAST MISTAKES OR BECAUSE OF OUR FLAWS?

GOD HAS GIVEN US A BRAIN TO THINK,

BUT SOMETIMES WE OVERDO IT AND EVERYTHING WE LINK.

THIS MESSES UP OUR COMPLICATED BRAIN,

AND ALL THE LIVELINESS GOES TO DRAIN.

WE DELVE IN OUR THOUGHTS FOR AN IMMEASURABLE AMOUNT OF TIME,

WASTING OUT MOMENTS ON THINGS NOT EVEN WORST A DIME.

WE SHOULD HAVE A SYSTEM OF LETTING GO,

AND ACCEPTING THINGS AS WE GO WITH THE FLOW.

PAS IS GONE AND FUTURE IS NOT SEEN,

AND EVERYONE KNOWS THAT THE WORLD IS MEAN.

SO THINKING ABOUT IT ALL WILL NOT DO ANY GOOD TO US,

EVEN OUR PRESENT LIFE WILL BE IN AN UNAVOIDABLE FUSS.

IF YOU DON'T FIND THE STRENGTH TO GET THROUGH IT ALL,

JUST TALK TO A FRIEND WHO WILL ALWAYS BE THERE AT YOUR CALL.

SHARING YOUR FEELINGS LESSENS THE BURDEN A LOT,

AND LET'S YOU GET AWAY WITH THIS UNCANNY BRAIN CLOT.

LIFE IS TOO SHORT FOR THESE POINTLESS MOOD SWINGS,

WHAT BRINGS YOU HAPPINESS ALWAYS TRY TO DO THOSE THINGS.

THEN SEE HOW YOUR LIFE IS FILLED WITH JOY AND LAUGHTER,

AND YOU'LL BE ABLE TO LIVE HAPPILY EVER AFTER.
