The woods were silent,
The darkness seemed loud,
The voyager wore a frown,
There was neither a living nor a shroud.
She feared she was lost ,
Perspiration was at its loft .
With every footfall she hid a tear,
As if the cruel gale shouted ‘Beware’.
She doubted if she was brave,
For the place was as lifeless as a grave.
Amidst chaos, tranquility she chose,
After all in adversities, the voyager grows.
A minute, a second, what to call ,
A soft breeze rose, the gale did fall.
The darkness vanished, a hamlet thrived,
Undoubtedly, the Warrior had survived.
The storm was over,
She forgot how she made it through.
But one thing was certain ,
The storm welcomed a voyager, a WARRIOR-bid adieu.

Never apart
Let’s start from the beginning ,
Where everything was just twinkling ,
The sky was full of stars,
And my hopes had no bars.
Suddenly, I started to encounter the gaps,
The ones that had no bridges to pass,
And it goes over and over again,
Until you find yourself was the main aim!
Perception was difficult in glimpses,
For I am an amateur full of surprises .
Rising the charts was never the goal,
But be it as the world told.
As a rule people love to see your scars,
Bending the knees is easier so far,
But I gathered the strength to take a fresh start,
As everytime I fell , I was never apart!

GOD
True love gives only God
Right ways shows only God
God is not only in temples
But God lives in our heart and in our soul.
To earn lots of money is not a big thing
To get a name and fame is nothing
But to get God is a great deed
So please devote much time in God
Follow and believe in God
Then, God will give you everything in life.
