MY SWEET MOTHER
My down cast sunken eyes enough to tell her,
Where and where exactly lay my pain.
Despite my repeated assurances
that I was fine,
She could still discern my agony
and all My excuses went in vain.
I came back from school in the afternoon,
She was waiting for me to have her meal.
Weariness invaded every corner of her eyes
But she kept awake just to express her feelings.
That my craziest ways were appreciated, and
The silliest queries embraced.
She told me,’grow up and be a lady’.
She made my roads clear and shady.
Ailment has intruded
her body but her Soul remains
as strong as ever.
Seeing me helpless and blue,
her heart sobs as ever.
All my troubles and travails
are known to Her and none other.
No one in this whole world
can take the place of my sweet mother.

ITS UP TO YOU
Who I was and who I am
It is nothing less than a big scam;
Those uncontrollable laughters,
Of which we were the masters;
Those endless talkings,
That we kept stalking;
The twinkinling eyes, the endless smile
All has lost its charm in the while;
Each little thing made me excited
Now there is nothing
about which I am delighted;
It is me or the world which has changed,
There is nothing to which i am engaged;
Change is inevitable I know,
It is a necessity as we grow;
I strech my arms to accept the reality,
Because to me this is the real beauty;
One thought can enlighten the day,
One mind can have its say;
One flower can define beauty ,
One struggle can remind your duty;
One candle can enlighten the room,
One downfall can bring the gloom;
One child can become an inspiration,
One word can give the motivation;
So love the change in you,
Because how you take it, its up to you..

STAND STRONG
When things seem difficult miserable
Life is turning away from you
Intimidated and worn out you remain
In darkness at a corner you examine
Watching the sky as it disappears
Reminding the lost beloved ones
How beautiful and caring they were
Vanishing without saying goodbye
Shortening your long life span
And leaving you destitute and lonely
Deeply you wonder
How life can really be unfair
To honest and good people like you
But all you let go off
And focus to mend your life
And strengthen your heart
With good and caring friends on your side
Opening the picture of brightness
Knowing GOD holds your hand
Leading you to your success
Stars embracing the whole sky
And you know your journey has started
In pursuit of your purpose
Slowly matching from dusk to dawn
With smiles and determination
In whispers you read your heart
ALWAYS STAND STRONG
