Blowing right by,
At an astounding pace,
Life takes it course,
Leaving me in the wake!
Things from my past,
Seem alien and strange,
It takes a special effort,
To realize that it’s me!
I wish it was this easy, wish that fate was kind,
It would be great if life could rewind!!!!!
I introspect to find,
A lot of things I have missed,
Some trivial, some vital,
Fragments of my life, nevertheless!
This journey would have gone,
A different path altogether,
Decisions back in time,
Today; seem heedless and improper!
I wish it was this easy, wish that fate was kind,
It would be great if life could rewind!!!!!
I guess it’s never too late,
To set things right,
Learn from mistakes,
See life in a new light!
What rests in my hand,
Is only my present,
To shape my future,
I need to re-invent!
I wish it works, wish that fate goes my way,
I will try right now to set my life straight!!!!!

Rewind!
Would have loved to write about myself! But am too complicated to be aptly described in words! Those who know me; know what I am talking about! Those who don't; well you are spared the efforts of unraveling the manifold layers covering me and still not comprehending what I am!
Here I pour out everything that I feel! Welcome to my world...the world of a maverick!

ReplyDeleteall the best in what u do, get that life straight! :)
when i started the poem i was tending to skim it through but somewhere in the middle you caught my attention, amazingly put. In my attempts of denying my past, I have lost all the memories, good or bad, cherishable or deplorable. and i wonder how it was like for me being a child, being young. I miss it. I wish if i could turn back time :).
ReplyDeletekeep writing.
