Liberate yourself

Tuesday, July 21, 2009 , 6 Comments


Been with you for over a year now
Still, I know much about you my friend.

I could see you working on many a front, 
Reminds me of a candle burnt on both the ends.

Hurdles and challenges would always be there
Take a breather and handle it with care.

Don't be harsh and punish yourself
The puzzles and mazes will clear in itself..

You will see a brighter day
When nothing would matter
And life is on your sway.

Don't wait or look behind
Take your strides upfront
Close your eyes
Rest your back
Let your pain out
Shrug it off
You would feel
The loads off..

You will see a brighter day
When nothing would matter
And life is on your sway...

It's not for long
I could see the Sun 
Raising its head
Through the horizon.
Wait and watch
In just a while
You will be basked
By its golden light...

This poem is for my best friend, who is going through a particularly tough time.

"I will be there for you whether you want or not, during your moments of tribulations or your moments of jubilance"... God Bless dear!

Sundar thanks! I hate to lie. Frankly speaking this topic is a common one and can be related to all. But this particular poem is for my best friend, who is going through a particularly stressed phase.

You have to meet him to understand the stress, pressures and worries. He handles them beautifully. I face a lots of problems too, but after seeing him, I knw the problems I face is not even 1% when compared to his. A wonderful friend. I was never fortunate to have such a strong friendship with anyone before him and I doubt if I will have one in future.

At one, I learnt crawling was fun. At forty one, I still feel crawling is fun #blamemykneesnotme
