The facets of life

Well after a lot of soul searching, I finally thought of penning some feelings. This is the first time ever in my life that I made an effort to pen down my thoughts this way. Please let me know if I should just stop here, or let me know if I have made a new beginning. This is something that I felt today, and I hope the words make your day! Happy reading!


The facets of life


The facets of life, move like waves in the ocean,

While one colossal wave engulfs you,

A gentler one comes n cheers you.

These change come, and these changes go,

What remain constant, are the lives you sow.


As part of this change, I had but a life,

That was so beautiful, that I begun betraying myself.

I became a person, I didn’t but know,

That I was a man, with a dream of my own.

Suddenly the life, just vanished from there

And I was left with all my dreams, hanging in the air.


I wept and cried in the loss of my life,

Reached out to God; and all my friends in time.

As I laid down before, to recover my life,

I realized what not, I had just left behind.


That I was a different man to begin with,

How could I have changed so much that I didn’t notice it?

Looking back now, I still dream of that life,

But in haste I try to cover it up with a lie.

That I feel everything, will all be alright; and life will go back

To what I had begun with.


The reality again, is far from the truth,

That life once gone, will never be the same again,

What I have today is what I had started with,

But it seems so small now that I don’t know if I can make with it.


It is but no one’s; but my own fault,

Forgetting my dreams and covering up with lies.

For taking a chance I knew I couldn’t take,

For ignoring the dreams I had once made.


As I stand today, with yet another life to begin with,

I wish I will always; remember the one I parted away with.

That I pray her soul, will always be happy,

And never again feel, the void that I am feeling,

That our coming lives may bring us the happiness

And once more the waves will bring us the cheer,

Waiting one day for that big colossal wave

To come back again, and wash us all away.

Couldn't believe I could, but here you go, presenting a song supposedly written by me... Actually I just spoke these words and Prashantee my good fren compiled them, edited them and presented it in a beautiful and presentable manner. All credits goes to her, although most of the words were mine. Still haven't figured out the name though....Here you go....


I write
I sing
I speak
I preach
It's me
Oh It's me
Blabbering about humanity

Meagre-powerless helpless me
Yet thinks I am great
When i sing this song of tragedy

I think this
I think that
I pen this
I paint that
I look around
And wonder
My brains at work
I present you this song
Of poverty

Everyday is the same story
Of wars and crimes
Of evils and the sublime
Of love and romance
And the pangs of changing times
I just write
I just sing
In different hues of pink
It's but the same old song
Of humanity

Yeah you can pack it up in whichever flavour you want
It's still the same
I dont bother about the glass
It gets awfully monotonous
Life
Death
Poverty
Helplessness
Tragedy
Sorrow
Blood
Wound
Lastly
Humanity.
