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. 🙂

  • Sai Ocean…!

  • My Journey…!

    YOU said, love will win love

    Then why did I get shoved

    YOU said, care will get care

    Then why didn’t I get my share 

    YOU said, loyalty will get returned

    Why then was I shunned

    YOU said, pure heart can win anyone

    Why then was I left stunned

    YOU said honesty won’t be treated as dirt

    Still, every time, it ends in hurt

    You said, the path of justice will be rough

    However, not that it will be so, excessively tough!

    I do feel lonely on this path of righteousness

    Feel tired and an accompanying loneliness

    The only hope which keeps me going

    Is that You’re walking with me, my boat You’re rowing

    I might not see You, but You’re holding my hand

    I know that someday, my journey I’ll understand…

  • Just Be There…!

    Even if you’re not able to help
    When you hear, someone yelp
    Even if you feel short of words
    To mend a heart that badly hurts
    Though you can’t offer a helping hand
    To make a stumbled person stand
    Though you know no ways or means
    To lessen those cries or screams
    Even when you know nothing would cure
    No effort you do will help assure
    Even when you try to rephrase
    No words you say offer any solace
    Don’t give up and walk away
    Hang on, just for another day
    JUST BE THERE – hold hands quietly 
    Just this – may go a long way you see
    JUST BE THERE – give your shoulder to lean
    Hang around, be there to be seen
    JUST BE THERE – care in your own special way 
    You may be an end to someone’s dismay
    JUST BE THERE – share a smile or a hug
    Don’t be the one, to pass off with a shrug
    JUST BE THERE – be thoughtful and kind
    You might save someone’s faith in mankind
    JUST BE THERE – be a helping hand in strife
    Your thoughtfulness might save a life…!
