Sonal's Poems

In this space, I write not to explain life, but to explore it. Pause with me, linger between the lines, and perhaps you’ll discover a piece of your own story here too. 🙂

  • Heartbroken…

    It pains to feel unimportant

    It hurts to have no value

    To be a substitute only

    To be there only to support you

    I wanted to be the need

    I wanted to be your desire

    I wished to be longed for

    With love as strong as a fire

    Heart feels choked

    and breathing seems heavy

    Living seems a burden

    With this tax of pain on it levied

    Responsibilities around

    Don’t let me retreat

    So much to do surround me

     and I marvel at my feat

    To live with this endless agony in heart

    To survive this rejection once more

    To cry even when eyes seem to be dry

    To hide emotions coming to fore

    I just want to start anew

    I don’t want to trouble you any longer

    I want to set you free from me

    Make you choose your love a bit stronger

    May God keep you away from crappy

    It is my heart’s only wish currently

    I want to see you extremely happy

    And live the life you deserve lovingly

  • Heart ache…

    Heart ache

    I got to know long back how it feels, when my heart breaks

    But didn’t know that it can break again n again, in the very same way

    The same emotions, the same helplessness, the same gloom, the same heart ache

    Tears non stop even when, already they’ve been shed all day

    There is no sound of this heart breaking, no one really bothers how I feel

    Whether I do self-pity, or stand up strong in a day or years or never will

    Images from the time when I felt all broken, keep playing in my mind

    I want to redo them all together, stop, erase and rewind

    With my face stained with tear marks, with my mind all reeling

    I turn towards the only one who can soothe my soul from peeling

    Even though I feel angry at HIM, for giving me this heart wrenching pain

    I know deep down in my heart, there’s reason for this agonising rain

    HE just looks upon with HIS heart charming smile, as if to say -“I am there”

    “Don’t worry my darling, I’ll take care of you”, but the relief seems no where

    I get to a point where I question my self, what is it so wrong that I have done

    What is it that I am being punished for, is there no way that it can be undone?!

    But this vicious circle will only go on, in sometime I might feel little better

    Only to fall in similar situation again, and get my heart shattered again for ever

    Wish this could all end soon, as this takes a toll too heavy

    Life seems too much to handle with this unexplained tax on it levied…

  • Dreams…

    Vivid dreams sometimes leave you wondering…

    That were you really dreaming or was it all true

    That was it just a creation of mind or all truly meant for you…

    That was there some hidden message in it for you to decipher

    That was HE trying to speak to you and show that things could be nicer…

    Vivid dreams sometimes leave you wondering…

    Was all what you saw, really real

    Has it happened or will it happen, it’s all surreal…

    Was there someone in it whom you have to connect with

    Or was whatever you saw all but a myth…

    Vivid dreams sometimes leave you wondering…

  • Angels…

    Do you believe in angels? Oh, I very much do

    Have felt their warm presence and motherly care too!

    God can’t be everywhere, so HE created angels for me and you

    To help us, spread love and to support us in what we do!

     

    Few angels in my life, have been there always for me

    They’ve guided me always, to the best that it could be!

    Had it not been for them, don’t know what would’ve I done

    Just perceiving hardship, I think I would’ve run!

    But due to their help & guidance in my life

    I faced hardship & every possible strife,

    Many challenging situations were made easy

    They were always there, and never too busy!

    I feel grateful to HIM for sending them my way

    Even in thick clouds, they brought a bright ray

    I love my angels and always want them in my vicinity

    They are special signs of HIM, & symbols of HIS divinity!

  • Despair…

    file

    What is life, is it only this despair

    Woof… went all my dreams flying in the air

    Not that I had dreams also too big

    Just someone who loves with whom life could’ve been a merry zig

    This heartache and these constant tears

    This agony and heart full of fears

    Weren’t part of the vision about my future

    There was love, peace and lot of laughter

    I know sorrow comes when joy one has to reach

    There is darkness before light fills the corner each

    There are heartbreaks when love round the corner waits

    And failures are there before we meet our fate

    But waiting and waiting and waiting endlessly

    And crying and crying, eyes shed tears ceaselessly

    Heart breaks and the soul feels lonely

    Where to go, what to do, I look around hopelessly

    All doors closed, only turning around is possible

    Making a u turn and returning seems viable

    To the very state which caused all that’s said above

    Are you laughing now – the Almighty there above?

    Not saying You are wrong, I surely must be deserving

    Of this pain and agony, that’s why I must be suffering

    Will this how I’ll live forever… is what gives a shiver

    Will each day of life be such… till with last breath my lips quiver?

    To die before dying is what has happened to me

    Now it is just living for name though nothing is remaining to be

    Where are all those hopes, where is that smile?

    Where is the happiness, my desire to strive?

    Where is that twinkle in my eye,

    Which when conveyed, made me feel shy!

    Where is my zest for life, the love that I had in abundance?

    Can I get all these back at this very instance?

    What is the purpose of my life, why have You sent me here?

    Can You kindly towards that path my life steer?

    Tired of seeing insults and enough of failures now

    Being looked down upon, and giving everything with a bow

    I am looking upon You to guide me the right way

    Can You please have mercy and show me the day?

    This darkness is empowering and will engulf me all

    Oh please hold my hand and save me this final fall

    Make me strong or hold me tight

    Let me go… or else fill me with Your light

    Change my heart and mind, give my soul its purpose

    Or teach me the ways to deal with life’s circus!

    To live is getting tougher

    The road is getting even rougher

    I can’t do it without You, so do remember this,

    Please come my way without any further tiff!

  • Silent Love…

    Silent love

    I miss you all through the day, I think of you even at night

    I keep thinking what could’ve been, how you could’ve been in sight

    How you could’ve been along, and how different things could’ve been

    Had you ever expressed, those hidden feelings for me!

    I sometimes even think, wish I had spoken myself

    Coz heartbreak frightened you so much, that expression, you shelved

    It perplexes me so much, that how your fear caused a block

    Even when you saw, the one you loved, was in shock

    To see how you behaved

    And showed that you didn’t care

    It hurt me so much I tell you,

    That I couldn’t myself dare –

    To tell you, that if you say, I won’t be able to refuse

    For my dear the love you felt for me, I also felt for you!

     

  • You’ve gone too far…

    Tears 1

     

    Life is crazy, you’ve gone too far

    My efforts are failing, in catching at par

    What fears me, is that I am giving up

    In even efforts, to keep my spirits up

    No one knows, where this is going to take us

    Can only pray to HIM, to always bless us

    Till then let’s catch hold of each other

    ‘Coz this my dear, is really rough weather!

  • Unspoken words…

    unspoken love

    Neither are you mine nor ever will be

    Still heart calls out for you and eyes want to see

    Your face, and I just want to hear once again

    Your soothing voice my dear without any strain!

    I miss our endless conversations from morning till night

    Our sharing with each other all talks however slight

    Our saying everything though words we use didn’t

    Our waiting for each other to understand the hints!

    Feeling proximity, from a distance quite a lot

    Feeling one with you, though close you were not

    Waiting for your messages with childlike impatience

    Smiling all along while reading them with just no pretence!

    Dreams were seen though hardly ever shared

    Longings were there to meet and express

    Those around, also knew what we had in mind

    But it was unspoken between us, something left to find.

    Your letters and mails and messages were craved

    Your words still, are deep in heart saved

    Words that we used for each other while we spoke

    Are all still held dearly, however hearts broke

    When before we could meet we were made to part ways

    The story which hardly began now shattered lay

    There are words unsaid and questions unanswered

    Wish we can meet someday and confirm what we read.

    Why didn’t you speak aloud, why didn’t you hold my hand?  

    Why didn’t you hold me tight when I dared to tread a new land?

    Why did you let me go so easily and without any fight?

    How could you accept the fact that I won’t be in sight?

    I know there weren’t any promises and I’m not holding you wrong

    We never told each other that our melody was a love song

    But we both know that it was much more than we shared

    Like none will ever, about me you cared.

    What pains me is why now we can’t be in touch?

    Why even our sacred friendship is looked upon with distrust?

    Don’t you ever miss me, or again just choose to hide?

    Heart pains, when I think of the rough tide

    Which took me away from you and you did nothing to stop me

    Oh why you didn’t show courage and tried to make me see

    True feelings which you had or the future which could be

    I miss you so much and – my Friend – you will fondly always be!

     

     

     

     

     

  • You gave me nothing but pain…

    Me-And-My-Broken-Heart-Picture

     

    You gave me nothing but pain
    Life with you was only rain
    I kept longing for sunshine
    Hoped someday I’ll smile & not whine
    But you gave me nothing but pain…
    All my efforts went in vain
    My dreams got shattered by you
    and I got nothing in lieu
    You gave me nothing but pain…
    I was mad and not sane
    To have fallen for your charm
    You did me so much harm
    You gave me nothing but pain
    I felt I was in chain
    You were ruthless and cruel
    My tears gave you fuel
    To give me nothing but pain…
    You were truly insane
    To not see my love & care
    Oh! how did I ever fare
    When you gave me nothing but pain…
    You left me sobbing & sighing
    I also thought of dying
    But your love was never true
    My wound I will sew

    My heart still aches
    And my body shakes
    My eyes shed tears
    My mind remembers fears
    It was not love that you had
    You hurt me and you were bad
    Why did you ever come my way!
    What do you now have to say?
    I feel angry and betrayed
    I don’t wish you had stayed
    I just want to hurt you and make you cry
    But even that I wouldn’t try
    I am happy you’re gone
    You have lost & I have won

    I wish I was strong
    To end it back & long
    But someday you’ll have to pay
    For what you did the other day
    You hurt a soul which was pure
    Though I have survived and will cure
    You will surely suffer in rain
    ‘Coz you gave me nothing but pain!!!
