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. 🙂

  • Please Stop…!

    There is no meaning in it, my mind says

    Heart still tries to find something

    Why don’t you stop visiting me?

    For my heart then likes to cling…

    There is no joy now in my reverie

    Heart still tries to find a smile

    Why don’t you stop looking back?

    For my heart then follows your miles…

    There is no purpose now in keeping you

    Heart still tries to hold & cherish

    Why don’t you stop bothering my thoughts?

    For my heart then starts to wish…

    There is no reality now in you & me

    Heart still tries to be hopeful

    Why don’t you stop calling out my name?

    For my heart then feels a pull… 

    Please stop to say, or smile or do

    Please stop to even look my way

    Please stop to even visit my dreams

    Just stop I plead, don’t come my way… 

  • Once again…!

    Last night, once again

    You came visiting in my dreams

    If only I had stretched my hand

    I could’ve had your feel!

    You were there, once again

    As vivid as always

    To get over it, and you

    It’s going to take me days! 

    I was wide awake in the dark

    Tears rolling down my face

    Mind told me it was just a dream

    Heart, still looking for your trace! 

    Whatever it was, that was said

    Still lingers in my mind

    But to listen to it all over again

    I want to sleep and press rewind! 

    Not knowing the real way ahead

    I just let a deep sigh escape

    Not looking forward to the might I’ll need

    To get back to a normal state! 

  • “We do“…!

    Who will understand

    Probably no one

    Why I feel so lonely

    After I have your vision… 

    Who will be able to replicate

    The warmth I feel

    There is no duplicate

    The love there is ideal…

    Who will bring that joy

    The smile you bring is unparallel

    The end to my gloom

    Only in your visions dwell…

    Who will ever know “us”

    There’ll never be a chance

    For when we say “we do”

    It only just feels, in a trance…!

  • Let it stay…!

    The things I see, they baffle me,

    They pierce my heart like a dagger

    They hit me with a ferocious speed 

    I can’t stand strong, I stagger!

    They make me feel so lonely

    Amidst all that’s tangible around

    I squirm and pull myself in

    Encircled by thoughts newfound!

    Trying to find a stable ground

    Beneath my shaking feet

    I tell my very hurting heart

    “Give it time again, you’ll heal”! 

    With no one who’ll comprehend

    I curl within to hug my soul

    Whatever it is that comes as scenes

    Don’t fight it, just behold!

    So, I allow myself to feel this pain

    It has come for a reason I am sure

    It has chosen me for good or bad

    And I’ll let it stay till it cures!

  • My own sweet world…!

    The fearlessness that I always want
    The craziness that I dare
    The bravest things that I want to say
    The deeds – that’ll leave my soul bare
    The naughtiness I don’t think I have
    The childishness I don’t show
    The hearty laughs beneath those sighs
    The giggles that don’t come out anymore
    The running wild, the freest dance
    The skipping, jumping galore
    The harmless fun, the mindless acts
    Those chances to settle old scores

    All these I live in my world of dreams
    Where I am not constantly judged
    There I can be what I want to be
    Without anyone telling me as much
    It mind sound all an escapist route
    But, it is a route after all
    Somewhere, where I am myself
    Without any stern protocols
    No limits to my thoughts there are
    No limits to how I behave
    No limits to what I can achieve
    And to get everything that I crave!
    It is my own sweet world
    Which I look forward to as a treat
    When after my exhausting day
    I lie myself to retreat…!
