English Poetries
One day
You'll wake up
With a dream
Which is going to be totally yours
You lost so many things!
But this is going to be your only chance
I hope by the time you have that dream
You have that fire in you
Which will make you wake up all night
To make moonlight
Your sunshine,
I hope by that time
You'll learn not to compromise
For anything that you want in your life,
I hope you have that desire to
Keep what's yours to yourself
I wish the day you have that dream
You learn to live
By the principle of
"NOTHING IS IMPOSSIBLE"
Swati Shikha Laxmi
"NOTHING IS IMPOSSIBLE"
Quest For life
I wonder if I am at that stage in my life
Where I should seek
Peace and happiness
Or should I just go on a rampage
To get it all,
All the things I want from this life
Take what's mine
And then sit in peace
After building a happy place for myself
And my loved ones,
But you never choose grass to eat
Once you've tasted what flesh taste like
Do you?
You never sit after that because you run
Run like a dog
To hold on to what's yours
Or some even run in the quest for more
Then you pause because now your knees hurt, your bones are getting old and weak
Now you want to pass these on to your children/
You want them to run as you did
First to get what you want
Next to hold what you have
Then you find a place at the height
Where people can't reach
But then you start to grieve
For all the things you've lost
Because you were running
Now your heart will never know peace
Then you'll pass down the chaos
The way I see the world is nothing
But dogs fighting and running
Snatching away each other's beef
The truth is all we talk is peace
And all we have in store to sell is chaos
We have never been taught
To narrate our stories
In terms of what we have
We have been taught to narrate
Our stories in terms of
What we lack,
We have been taught to compare
And when we compare
What we have seems so small
In comparison to those who have everything,
Then we couldn't help but think
How much we don't have,
Swati Shikha Laxmi
Accept Yourself
Don't beg
No don't scream
I know you feel the highest tremors
Of earthquake in your heart
It's not that hard
Don't chop off your beliefs
Because you're afraid that
You might get lost
Why is it so easy for you
To give up on yourself
And to get going for someone else
Don't beg
No don't scream
Don't stop them
And don't surrender
Your heart is like that child
Whose guardian angel ignores him
And give all their wealth to someone else
That child do it's best
To let you know you are doing an evil thing
And you're being played
But you keep on tormenting it
To keep it silent
Because you have no self-control
No courage
You got no courage to respect yourself
Your fear of living without someone
Is much more than
Fear of losing yourself
You need someone to complete you
Because you think you are incomplete
And why do you think
Someone will love the empty jar
You don't need anyone
Accept you
For yourself,
Your value
For who you are,
Your love
For your flaws,
It's an art to love yourself,
Because then you free the person you love
From all the obligations of
Expectation game
And when you do this
Then it becomes love
Otherwise, it is an expectation game!!
Swati Shikha Laxmi
