Won't you come out ?

 


We shall take a walk,
down the road and
wander around,
see the lights falling out
cause these cities ain't 
no sleeping anymore,
Baby, won't you come out ?
I will be waiting by the shore.

We could dance and roam,
maybe seal this night 
as our own, and kill
a little time, swaying around
watch the night fall out,
and let our woes sink in.
So, won't you come around ?
And paint the town red 
For you can sleep,
again, when you're dead !


P.S Got a poetry prompt from the song "where the lonely ones roam"

TEARS IN YOUR EYES

You walk through the lane,
silently sliding the pain away
sighing, in disbelief of the lies,
that comes running your way.
I know, it feels heavy in the,
heart to carry it all along;
seeking for answers,
you might never come across.
Trying to look up, for the
bright side, amidst these
hazy dark clouds hovering above
pulling you, towards the feeling
of loss.

You put on a smile, so deep
leaving behind every scar you had,
owning up to the world's wrath
and walking through the adrous path
I know, it feels heavy in the heart
to keep going this way
For the scars, hiding beneath
your unfolded sleeves, they stay.

Oh dear, it's a war 
everyday, that you fight
hiding in the lap of moonlight,
waiting for the next day to show
where the pain, residing in your
hearts, somehow seems a little low
And then you realize, that it's okay
when on some nights, you dance
with tears in your eyes!

HOPE!

I hope!

This is your life. You get to choose who you want to be, and what you want to learn. But I hope you learn how to be proud of the person you're becoming; and of where you are at this moment or what you've achieved so far- big or small. I hope you find the courage to chase what sets your soul on fire, and be happy on your own terms even if it isn't what others might approve of. 

I hope you learn to love yourself just the way you hope others did, and I hope, that love brings out the best in you and in whatever you do. I hope you find moments that make you feel alive, and teach you to truly live life. I hope you find people who sees the best version of you with all your flaws ahead and still decides to stick by. I hope you learn not to hold back and to let go of the things that aren't meant to. And I hope you learn to forgive yourself for what you did when you had to. 

But most of all, I hope you find your true self out there amidst the chaos of the world. There's a lot to feel out there, and I hope you feel it all. Because there's absolutely nothing more beautiful than embracing the journey you're on. It's a different feeling altogether!

#LIFELESSONS'

I'm learning. I'm slowly learning what it means to be human, what it means to be growing.
 In life, you can't skip chapters because it doesn't work that way. You have to read and go through every line, meet every character and see what the next chapter brings in for you because that's how you grow. It can be uncomfortable, messy and full of emotions you weren't expecting to feel any sooner but you have to let it pass. Because every experience will eventually lead you to where you are supposed to be. So the next time you feel confused or lost on your way; don't be so hard on yourself because you don't necessarily have to have an answer to every situation or feeling, just trust yourself that you will figure it all out and that everything will work out exactly the way it's supposed to be. So, just live through everything that ever comes your way; allow yourself to grow through it. Curate every aspect of your journey as much as you can, because one day you will realize- happiness was always about embracing the person you were becoming throughout the journey; and learning how to live with yourself above all. And at the end, you will see that you're still learning as there's always room for you to grow. Because life, would be so boring if you'd done it all, already right?

HAVE A START!

Be it today or tomorrow , you have got to start

It's time to start working on that life you've always dreamed of. Nothing comes handy, you have got to make a move; be it today or tomorrow. So stop saying you will do it "some day", and just start doing it. Don't settle for the "one day" thing, because that might never happen. Just take a step ahead from wherever you are at right now, and you will get your directions on the way. At some point of time, you have to take a step and make a move anyway; so why not today? 
Today's a good day to start. Even if it means you taking baby steps, just do it. Because you have got to make the things you plan inside your head happen. And that's how you have to do it. A step ahead is always a step closer to what you wish to be. So, just put the fear of failure aside, because  if you don't start you will never know how far you can actually go. Remember, the feeling of regret is more terrifying  than the fear of failure.  

-have a start, today! 

"Just Stay Positive"; Genuine Optimism or Toxic Positivity?
