Life was all bliss, complete and flawless,
No rough waters just calmness and stillness,
The sun was shining down on me,
Bright warm sunshine reached out to see,
Is life perfect it asked, are you happy?
All I did was smile back, eyes sparkling will joy,
It could get better, it wouldnt get worse.
I had everything I ever wanted,
The path I chose crystal clear,
My supports and anchors stood near,
Egging me on to be strong,
To reach the pinnacle of success not far long.
As i reached across to grasp my dreams and goals,
I looked back for my anchors hold,
But all of a sudden there was nothing there,
Just darkness I saw in despair,
I stood at the edge of a great abyss,
I had only one way to go,
The sun had disappeared and dark clouds gathered,
In fear of the lighning I covered,
This is not right things cant go awry,
I called out to them and did cry,
But all i saw was darkness around,
Slowly my mind and heart it found,
I stood there in fear as voices appeared,
They pushed me forward towards the end,
And then in the unhappy darkness I took the plunge...

Lovely...
reminded me of the Pink Floyd lyrics...almost diametrically opposite expression.
I took a heavenly ride through our silence,
I knew the waiting had begun,
and headed straight into the shining sun
-> Coming back to Life,
Pink Floyd.
nice work.
And I thought you could only write..But this poem is too good..
are you sure its you thats writing the poetry?
Total disconnect between the chirpy Sandnya that works in L&T and the deep , almost melancholy one that lurks in the online sphere.
Thumbs up :)
Good one. Well the start could have been better. But the end is intense, deep and leaves a profound impact. Try using words which come straight to your mind, since this is a intense one.. try sticking to the core of the message you want to send out.
