Sorry guys, am back..

August 11, 2007

I thought I would restart my writing efforts with poetry. But wait, if you are ardent fans of poetry, please stop reading, this is my humble request.                                                                                                             

Uncertainty

Lots of days,

Thousands of months,

Years and years,

I passed through them,

With everything but fear.

But now, I see shadows and ways,

Filled not with roses,

But doubts, unclearable doubts..

 

Yesterday, which I thought,

Was just another day,

Reminds me of opportunities lost,

And, scares me,

Cos, what about so many other days,

Which went before yesterday?

And the things they would have offered me?

And I, I just ignored them..

 

And so, ignorance isn’t bliss,

And the present,

The lights flashing by,

Are they lights of wisdom,

Glory and Wit?

But wait, they may be,

The flashes before thunder too.

Doubts, am Uncertain..

 

And the most scariest, My future.

I have to work hard, to compete,

And win, in this fast moving world,

But then, where are those lovely days,

When the sun shined with a smile,

Hugging the earth with its warmth,

Birds chirped, bells clonged,

Songs of happiness..

 

They are just there, I know,

But I am ignoring them,

Inorder to find a future,

Firm and strong,

But am I succeeding,

In finding that?

No, not at all.

Am still uncertain..

 

So, what am I doing?

Losing everything,

Gaining nothing,

Ignoring the simple joys of life,

Forgetting my passions,

And like so many others,

Fighting nothing

But a losing battle..
