I smile and I pray

*sigh* time flies...and here I am completing one year in this blog. Yes tomorrow 16th March is the first anniversary of my fav blog (out of the 4 that I have). What a year it's been...full of mixed emotions. Some happiness, some pain...some letting go...some acceptance. Through it all I've cherished this blog the most coz this is where I've let my heart speak...in simple words that sometimes rhyme...that sometimes sing my hearts tune...that sometimes just cry my silent tears...

I don't get here as often as I do at my other blogs...I don't write poems that often. And some times revisiting some memories is difficult but yes, there are some memories here which make me smile...too...I love this space of mine...it is the closest to my heart...and will always be so! And the only way to celebrate that is by posting the following lines... :-) (This is my 20th poem here...)

Who says life’s got to be fair
Who says people are gonna care
I don’t want to complain
But life can sometimes be such a pain!

Sometimes life’s so beautiful
And sometimes life’s simply sad
You can’t live following any fixed rule
You gotta know don’t you?
You can never be prepared enough for the bad!

But I wake up each day
With yesterday’s despair left behind
I smile and I pray...to help me face each day
Its dreams, hopes and desires
With an open and strong mind!

  1. Hey...did you know that without sadness, happiness would not exist. So, even if there is dispair and you've managed to come out of it, then on retrospective ... sounds more like a lecture. So, I shall stop.

    I liked the first and second verses; the last line of the last verse just click with me...but then what do I now of poetry.

    Take care

  2. love and hate...pain and ecstacy...two sides of the same coin!!!!..each one exists coz of the other..and i guess to enjoy one you need to experience the other...but sometimes pain n hate become too much for us and it crushes the soul!! but still life is beautiful!!!

I find myself swinging.  Not on a playground swing.  Not high on dope. But on life.  Swinging into extremes... One minute I ...
