Starting Over...

Posted on 16th Feb 2014 07:03 pm by admin

I’m trying to find something to base my life upon,
Something in this strange world that goes on and on.
As the years go by and time fades away,
What used to be “good days” are now filled with dismay.
Tomorrow comes, and then again, it goes,
And my ambition to become something more, grows and grows.
Around the corner, yet miles away,
The life I want now, gets closer each day.
All I’ve ever wanted was something to live for,
I don’t want to be this little person anymore.
I’ve been basing my life upon what others think,
I wish I could go back and redo everything, every time an eye would blink.
I’ve fought to become who I am and what I want to be,
I have to remind my self that one day, I will be free.
Free from the rules I followed as a child,
When everything was a game and life was so mild.
Now times have changed and I realize nothing is fair,
And sometimes it seems like nobody even cares.
It’s like no one pays attention to what I feel is best for me,
And what I think about the way some things should be.
I understand now, that I’m pretty much on my own,
And I know a lot of what I can do will never be known.
All the time, I think about everything I can’t say, what I have to keep in,
And by doing this, my thoughts only get more complicated and deepen.
Soon I hope to find out who I am, and what I am meant to become,
I want to know where I’m going, I don’t need to be reminded of where I came from.

The joke was very funny

She laughed a lot of tears

When suddenly her eye fell out

chalo fir se hum bache ban jate hai

It's Time To Really Let You Go

Letting you go is not easy

No matter how hard I try

I cannot seem to get you out

What Lies

 

You told me you loved me,

but your eyes were empty.

You told me yo

Har pal tum hi yaad aao

Har pal ne kaha ek pal se…

Pal bhar ke liye aap mere samne aa jao…

Perfect Mask

 

She smiles, I cry.

She is outgoing, I am shy.

She loves, I am alon

A Whole Love

Ever since

I laid eyes on you,

I knew for a fact

This was a dream come tr
