My own Happy Ending

It is quite not the life I dreamed
Fairy tales I guess aren’t reality
There is no chariot, there is no mermaid
Never had a glass shoe,
Is there a prince charming?
Am I to believe still,
There are happy endings !!

I’m just a simple girl
with lots of dreams….
now you told me
its okay to dream,
but, its time to wake up,
to reality..

yet when I stare
at the starlit sky,
I wish there was my prince,
who could make it all right,
& me a fairy of a tale...

Alive again

Feeling alive

is an ordeal

often forgotten
tired & bruised

yet I try & lose

to escape those

wretched memories

It is like a dreadful dream

and.....

life stalled there!

at a nerve wrecking pause!!

I am endlessly

praying for a new day,

it never comes,

It did not today,

yet I await

.......

.........

And I wait....

for what, I no longer know

for whom, I forgot

I am still at that pause..

.....

.....

Only, I have learnt to live now!!

break free

let me be free
tie not my spirit
with how I should be
just let me be free

let me sing
with the tinkling chimes
let me dance
with the gusty winds
let me cry
heartbroken in rain
and indulge in rhyme
pardon me, but
that’s how I feel alive

let me fight crime
let me forget time
let me be me
judge me if you like
but, set me free…
