Scribbles


ENMESHED

To be or not to be
To do or not to
Past and present intertwine
Into a grotesque mesh
Leaving me all confused and knotted.

JUST WISHES

Wishing forgetting you came easy,
Wishing just a goodbye would have done it all,
Wishing it was enough to erase all those memories,
Wishing just closing my eyes would end it all,
Wishing turning away would set me free,
From all those memories which look so distant
Now that you're not here anymore.

      Time may not be a medicine as the pain is never gone but it indeed is the best healer as it gives us the space to get used to living with the pain :)
      Thanks a lot :)

    That feeling is the hardest. But once you're over it, Life feels new and different. Better nevertheless.

      Hehe yeah sometimes you just need a few bumps on the road to keep you from over speeding :P Life isn't that bad when you learn to appreciate every part of it, be it grief or joy :)
      Thanks :)

    Wow, that was beautiful!! I loved 'Just Wishes', it really brings out a sense of loss and desperation - beautifully written, Swarnali!! I really feel like humming it, wish I could find a tune to go with it :-)

    losing someone is one of the hardest things ever. but they are right when they say that what doesn't kill you makes you stronger. it's only when you close one chapter, that the next can start. cheers to a new beginning. :)

    Lovely words Swarnali :)
    From being bonded to trying to escape the bonds, the moods expressed nicely.
    This post reminds me of one of my favorite songs 'Wish you were here' by Pink Floyd.

    Keep up the good writing Swarnali. :) :)

    Regards

    its touching and a tad sad too .. but we cant change the past.. its gone .. future we dont know .. the only day is TODAY.. the present ..

    wishing this happened or that , is ok, but it would be much more feasible is we actually do something about it :)


    Take care girl, have a great day and wish you and family a VERY very happy diwali

    Bikram's

      Thanks a lot,Bikram...
      Well, I don't regret anything but at times you just wish things turned out better..no harm in wishing that,right?? ;)
      Those lines were written long back. I'm on better terms with life now :D
      A very happy Diwali to you too :)

    We're always interwined in the tales of past. It ain't easy to move past it.
    Worth reading. Amazing poems. :)

      Hey Purple!!
      Thanks for dropping in :)
      Am glad you liked them.. :D
      Well, I believe the present and the past are always intertwined, you can segregate the two and even though you can say you've moved on forgotten the past...it is not true, you just decide to ignore it willingly :)
