You can never actually be alone,
For your past follows you, your present sticks to you, your future lives in your thought.
And it often gets painfully complicated that,
The last time I laughed at myself, I forgot.
***
Squeezed between "doing the best I can" and "I am not good enough"
And with challenging dreams and difficult people uncomfortably knocking at our door,
Life is also not kind and plays out to be a hypocrite, telling,
Be contended with the good yet keep wishing for more.
***
Dilemmas are to be a part of everyday life.
Inspite of living with simple conviction and no perplexity,
Because, simplicity comes at a complicated cost,
And every kind of clarity comes with some unexpected obscurity.
***
And yet with all that pessimism within,
A part of me tells me to be all nice,
Because more than how hurt you are,
What does matters is the happiness of others sometimes.
***
What is so great about the moon,
The feeling of its beauty, yes the visual treat.
But more importantly,
It reflects the same charm inspite of its different phases,
Showing us to be that lively even if we're far from complete.
***
We are fighting our own battles
You being you, me being me, trying to constantly heal.
When the sun can shine even if it's burning within,
You might as well can be kinder than you feel.
***
Few years down the line,when I'll want to give out my story,
The ups and downs should make it worthwhile,
After all I know I am equally a hypocrite like my life.
Believeing in the end, good or bad, it'll make everyone around smile.
Thanks for reading.
