Live Your Life

                                                                                 


                                                                 This is a storm before

The rain of joy

Your silence will tame

When the smiles burst

Your Tears will dry before

The sun shines

 

You may be walking

Through summers of past

And Living through

Colours of lost dreams

And Swimming through

The lake of hope

To snatch back all that

Flew past your heart

 

You got to fly away from your past

Towards a new destiny

You got to dream something new

That’s so exciting

 

You got to fight for a new dawn in life

To show your courage

As there are some people

Who considers you a sour loser

Writing you off as a failure

They find joy in mocking and teasing you

But you can leave them speechless

As you walk past them

With the wand of glories

That they could never even dream

 

Stick to your likes

Build your life around it

You will see your life blooming

With the joy, you've never experienced before

There is a reason for every life

Search for your reason

You will find it

Live

 



 

This is a poem I wrote in 2010. I feel I was more optimistic back then. This poem sounds like me in 2010 telling me in 2022 to live my life.  I wasn't depressed at that time, I guess. I certainly cannot write a free-flowing poem now. Images from Unsplash. Taken by Marc Najera and Fabio Comparelli .

Swim against the Tide









Swim against the tide and take on the challenges
Which others say, no you can’t do
That’s what is thrilling!
To set targets that looks odd
Unachievable from distance
But the pleasure of fighting on
It is something magical
Working with a steamy mind
Calculating all the possible roadblocks
Finding streamy solutions to it
Calculating some short cuts
Finding optimum ways to cash it in
Then planning a foolproof plan to succeed
Then travelling through those paths
In the imagination, for a test ride
Then gearing up for the grand show down
To entice others in a shock of their life time
Isn’t it a rocking way to enjoy life
To think different and act different
Others may laugh, may call eccentric
Living a life with small dreams
Will be more of a routine one
Waking up, working and sleeping
When there is, something challenging in front
Life becomes ever so green
Every dawn comes up with an invitation
To engage in a captivating battle
A spirit of excitement that keeps life alive
Until the dusk comes calling to rest
Even in dreams the very challenge keeps
The mind raring to go when the new dawn rises
Tears and smiles will swing like share market
But, there is always only one thing that remains in mind
An agony
To fight like in hell to prove everyone wrong
And to conquer the challenge beating all odds
The joy of being a conqueror
Nothing else can match it
That’s why the passion remains stubborn
Until the task is achieved
No matter how much time it takes
No matter what cost is there to be paid
No matter what pains are there to endure
All that matters is that moment of pumping the fist in air
Like a true conqueror!
