No Regrets

I was happy that I had gained many

Bonds, that I had treasured as mine.

Came to realise that there weren't any

Love, But mere swords that shined.

Braving all the winds and tides,

I sailed my way with high hopes.

Never thought I would have such rides

That would leave me hanging onto ropes.

With confidence, I had walked all those miles,

Thinking I was never on my own.

Turning around I witnessed distant smiles

And realised that, I was there, all alone.

Now, I no longer wish to walk, any distance

With ones that doubt my grief and pain.

Rather, I did lead a life with a difference

With no regrets or none to complain.

I shall rise up

Waking up to the melody of birds,

I see the sun, shining bright.

I stand still, short of words;

But determined to do what is right.

I know there will be hurdles as I go,

And I might fall at times to the ground.

But, that is not going to make me slow,

And I will be up again for another round.

I will learn from the mistakes I make,

As I embrace the life as it comes

And letting my soul be awake

With undying love that hums.

At times, future may seem grim,

But, I will not let my heart down

I will give my best, holding on to the rim

And I shall rise up, adorning my crown.

A Voiceless song

You feel the most, when you lose

And to realise, you just can't go on.

To know there's nothing for you to choose,

And all that you held once dear, are gone.

Sometimes I wonder what I would say,

With the guilt and regrets, still in my head.

Wish I could somehow cast those away,

With all those tears I shed.

I feel, am pushed into an infinite dream,

With all those moments buried along alive,

Deafened by the wounded heart's scream,

I hope to defy the odds to survive.

I had loved this time with a guarded heart,

To overcome anything that may come along.

But still couldn't hold my world falling apart

With all my flaws woven into a voiceless song.

Forever Friends

My words can't really express

My love for you all.

And I know, you all love me no less,

Throughout my rise and my fall.

As we all grew side by side

Never thought how good our bond be.

A bond that is strong and wide

Enough, for the whole world to see.

We are the chosen few,

Who share all the little things we do

And we share a closeness so true,

To break all the hurdles and get through.

Though we all stay miles apart

We always had, lot of things to say

And memories that will never depart

We have made laughing so hard, every day.

Dwelling in the past

You challenge me with your love,

I wish I could win you enough.

But that's not what's said from above,

Day by day it's getting tough.

I see myself in your eyes,

Not pained by the changes around.

From the falls I arise,

As you lift me up from the ground

Gone were the days I laughed

Brushing off; thoughts of the world

How would I ignore the moments passed

Wherein; I laid in your arms curl'd.

Wish I could run to my past

And turn things around,

And make all those memories last,

Dwelling in every light and sound..
