Labyrinth

I feel all my believes fading into grey
With no power left in me to sway
I ponder what it is to be
A left over all the way

With every grain of optimism in me
I rise again after every fall
To find myself in a deeper pit
Just like that in a fraction of second
I find myself in dismay

They say honesty, hardwork, and effort are jewels to human kind
But after all these relentless strife
I suspect if it's all just a fad
I look around and find

Evil men adorned with shiny scales
Must be their past lives
They find themselves in lovely rails
Oh you wisest of all

Tell me how to bear this unfair burden
And get myself back into the relentless race

Every waking day I find
Some new flaw
Never seem to fit in the stereotypical gnaw

Oh greatest of all
Tell me where I will find the strength
To fight, resist and repeat
Feel so lost in this labyrinth
Might just end here, in the haze

I feel my heart waves synchronising
With every beat of your whisper
Is this what they call magic?
Or is this the start of something drastic?

Ghosts from past
Flash before my sight
I warn my heart to not fall into
A pit from where I can never raise up

What is this haze that's baffling me
Is this just in my head or is anything true
Do you too feel?
Something new!

With all my fears and doubts, i rush
In to a new era ,all fresh
Hoping to rewrite the stories of the past
With you along my side till the very last

How am I supposed to write the poem of my dreams
When my hands are stuck in the shackles of tortured schemes
I used to find my muse in disgrace
Now all I see is wilted roses and flames
Love, hate ,anger, every emotion seems to be Tangled
With every breath I feel so angered
So this torment sets my soul on fire
The need for swift rescue is so dire

The idea of a beautiful day is indeed a facade!
Just wake up, surround yourself with the people you love and make it happen in every possible way ✨

You and I
We both are the reflections of-
The tomorrows and the yesterdays!!
Just as the shadow casted by sunrays
We too recur by the twilight beam

Guilty!

Guilty as charged!!
For once I stumbled on my toe
And hurt someone so bad,
Some one so sweet and kind.

I  know in my heart that I wronged you,
I know in my heart that I hurt you
And now I find myself stranded in the sea of remorse
But nowhere I find a tinkle of resources
To step up and apologize to you.
For all I know is I'm haunted by my fears and ghosts
I'm refrained by my tormented blues!

I sense the dismay in your silence
I feel the pain you eyes
I see the bridge broken
I hear the words unspoken.

Forgive me , kind soul
This is the bravest I can be!!
