Living is Strenuous

Living is mercurial...

We can live up to our dreams...

we can make a living..

we can dream big and

attain fame, money and power...

But how, how...

can we live like this forever...

nothing is immortal...

we believe at least should 

make life king size so as 

everyone should pay homage to us...

But how will we feel...

leaving back our loved ones...

leaving back what all we have accomplished...

living is strenuous...

when its near...

living is strenuous...

when we have the entirety to solve it...

but are feeble...

living is strenuous...

to get over the challenge to live...

to regain and to survive...

because we love to live...

no matter how bad things are...

no matter how things will turn out to be...

but we want to live...

from now till the end...

With people we love, care and want to cherish for life.

Walking through my Life

I started walking in mom’s arm…

Then with holding dads hand…

Since then walking was a straight line..

Twinkling and smooth,

Precious and easy as ever…

Never hurt myself…

Never bump into something…

Joyful ride of my life…

Walking again…

On a bumpy road…

On a rough path...

It was difficult to ration..

To understand the ups and downs on the road…

Many whys in the head..

Many troubles here and there…

But was taught to keep Walking…

On those bumpy road…

With full swing and happy faces…

Now I understand the patches.. I lead…

Now I am grown enough to analyze the way…

Though walking alone has made me tough and strong…

But have also made me able to choose my way..

And be ready to deal and fight it through...

But no matter how i have turned out to be

I am the same old girl in my mom’s arm..

Same old girl holding dad’s finger…

Now walking together…

And forever…
