Seeing through yourself

Into the woods lies your soul
Into the sound of serene, your heart keeps a hold.
Say noo! to the life you are rushing
And there, right there!!!
 you have years of your peace dying to unfold.

Into the broken past, lies your worth
Into the harsh reality, your mind keeps a hold
say noo! to the "would have's " you are foresighting
And there, right there!!!
you have years of your perseverance dying to unfold.

Into the mirror of life lies your goal
Into the clarity of your image, your body keeps a hold
say noo! to the trashes you are building to board
And there, right there!!
You have years of your destined journey dying to unfold.

7 years down

As the morning alarm, my soul rings
Brightening petals of these beauty,
 the yellows and the greens

 Certainly the best i ever came across,
Pretty, i can never unsee
Reminder of the smile, so tender
How i envy the wind, playing with her hair
 and those hands running behind the ear

I try unfolding the memoir,
 With the fingers crossed, and a hope so strong,
I stand amidst the aisle AGAIN!!!!
No, not a failure this time
I sigh!! 

A sigh of relief in the years long gone
Bald headed, snow beard
 torn pages and heart ripped off
All withered i see
But the petals..
The yellows and the greens
Smile 
Enlighten my soul as i am nineteen
7 years down.. 
Today, i stand here feeling nineteen

Realization hits

I didn't have to rush..
Never letting my peace win
Never calming the fire in me
My deathbed shouts at me
I lift my hand, i do it slow
I do it slow because i am not allowed anymore...

Drops on my cheek competing to fall down
Yet, i lift my hand slow
Because, i am not able to rush anymore.

And i feel it again and again and again
I didn't have to rush

Never having the taste of serene
Never having the guts to feel a thing
I didn't have to rush
Never learning what settling means
Never pausing when i was just fast forwarding..
