If you can start the day without caffeine, and you can always be cheerful, ignoring aches and pains,
If you can resist complaining and boring people with your troubles,
If you can eat the same food every day and be grateful for it,
If you can understand when your loved ones are too busy to give you any time,
If you can take criticism and blame without resentment,
Yes, pain is a part of life
and inevitable, is strife
But, I had been vacillating
amid the confounding mind
I wished feelings to keep breathing ,
and yet, to leave the pain behind.
A vicious circle
it had been,
engendering a question-
till when?
till when will it hurt?
till when will I waver?
I wished for equanimity,
and an end to this quiver.
And I got the answer
Feelings are footprints, cemented with love
undisturbed, intact, always in preserve.
Let them sleep as a child,
don’t fiddle with them with thoughts.
to keep them buried, yet alive.
Hope will leave away with thoughts,
and it will set you free.
And, equanimous, you will then be.
“I’ll chase you”,
says Regret
“wherever you go.”
Hide me in your silence,
I will still thrive
Pretend being the accused,
I will still be alive.
Smash me by indulgence,
I will not turn away.
With you,
forever, I will stay.
But, after failing,
for once,
Admit my presence.
Mourne, or get angry,
don’t give in to pretence.
For once,
forgive yourself
And I promise, then
I will walk away.
Why is poetry sweet
when it talks of sorrow?
Why is love true
when it keeps waiting for tomorrow?
Why do stories appeal
when they don’t have an end?
Why are lies more alluring
and true words hollow?
Everything can come to an end abruptly.
The question is,
do we remember this in our lives?
We're so busy in working like the
prototyped human-machine
that we forget,we're here to live!
It's like sitting in a class
and overhearing the lectures.
It's like marrying someone
who you're indifferent to.
It's like doing a job
for 'money'
It's like repressing anger and…

You will be misunderstood, thought of as being less, and even blamed for mistakes you haven’t made. Sometimes, you will be laughed at for a great idea, and condemned for what actually deserved respect. The only person, who you can choose to be nice with you, is YOU! Respect yourself, and keep your head HIGH.
