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. 🙂

  • Moments…!

  • Reminiscing…!

    The place is the same,

    Yet years are different

    Characters are same,

    Yet roles are different

    Lessons are same,

    Yet timing is different

    The theme is the same,

    Yet story is different

    Emotions are the same

    Yet love is different

    Starting was the same 

    But I hope – the ending is different…!

  • Pointless Agony…!

    4073904

    Times change and people too

    Those who don’t are very few

    Words gets lost and promises broken

    A stillness – remains unspoken

    Vague vacuum lingers on

    To a dullness, you feel strongly drawn

    Reminiscing on the bygone days

    Till when you finally parted ways

    Living life like a dream at times

    Missing that, with you who rhymed

    Feeling strong the strain within

    The anguishing pain becomes a twin

    Grey clouds always shroud your sky 

    Uproar within of what and why

    Come to fore to disturb the peace

    Perplexing you on how to cease

    The restless mind needs to be aware

    This pointless agony will lead nowhere

  • Life, or Strife…?

    Not one who is not in pain in this life
    Not one who is free from some major strife
    As I meet people, such pain I see
    Is this how You wanted Your world to be? 

    Fake smiles, each fighting gross pain
    All the advices just go in vain
    Tears and sobs and compromise
    Before age we need to act wise

    It hurts me immense and I want to help
    It breaks my heart to hear them yelp
    I want to give them the balm they seek
    Atleast give strength to those who’re weak

    But nothing soothes the pain which kills
    Nothing which really helps to fill
    The void – which’s so deep and bare
    I just sit with You to say a prayer… 

    Finding our way in this maze You’ve made
    Listening to Your voice which sometimes fades
    Steering along the stumbling blocks
    We’re trying to reach our destination rock

    Just keep us on the path which is right
    Don’t let us fall, just hold us tight
    None who can soothe, none who can guide
    None who can help us cross this trench so wide

    Don’t leave our hand while we try to walk
    Just be there when we want to talk
    Give us the strength to bear this strife
    Let us have a happy life…!
