Bucket List

Tanvi_Manisha

You ain’t no more a child
Ain’t no more a teen
Tell me you grown up dear
How has your journey been?

Few decades gone,
Some more to come,
Time will fly, it keeps going,
It waits for none.

Dont busy yourself,
In chasing the happy life,
It lies right beside,
And no one ever sees.

It is now that you start,
What ever you have planned since,
And do everything you wished.
Tick off all the crazy things
From your BUCKET LIST…..

Do Grow and Age to wisdom,
But Do remember –
To keep alive, the child within.

Don’t Settle

Tanvi_Manisha

Cry, Cry often, 

Cry like a baby,

Curse your luck, Curse your life, 

Cry your pain out;

Cry until you feel no more tear,

But Don’t Settle, Because of any fear.

Feel sad, Grieve your loss,

If it is too much to take,

Take some rest, Take a pause;

Be patient with the depression,

Feel the confusion,

Weigh the consequences,

But don’t settle, Because of stupid reasons.

Run, Run away

From responsibilities, From fear,

From questions, From a life that is unreal,

From past, From all the known.

Go to unknown lands, Traverse the uncertain path,

Gather the courage, Face the challenges,

Stand strong,

And even if you fail again, Don’t settle.

No, it is not your mistake,

It is DESTINY….

Past is gone, Future unknown,

All there is – The present you own;

Forgive yourself, Forgive everyone,

Treasure the memories, But let go the past.

Have no regrets for all that is gone,

Look back, Smile and Move on;

What was, might have been wonderful, But now it is not;

Do not fake it to yourself, Because lies won’t last.

Rebel and don’t compromise, Fail but do try,

Fight and don’t give up, Chase you dream and fly;

Move on,

Embrace the uncertainty, Search for happiness;

And until you find it,

DON’T JUST SETTLE.

You are the One

Tanvi_Manisha

You are the feeling of the songs I listen,

You are the touch of the wind that flows past me;

You are the nostalgia of the moon I adore,

You are the reason of the smile that suits on me.

I do not want to understand the unreal reals,

I do not want to hide;

I want to express it all –

My feelings of happiness,

And the pain of separation that never heals.

For I have one life to live,

For I met you in this;

Who knows about the next life?

And whether we will ever meet.

Language

Tanvi_Manisha

You were not speaking the words, I thought you would speak,

And suddenly you knew a language, That I was yet to learn,

I tried to decipher, But they did not make any sense,

And I left wondering – Why would you do so?

 

Don’t think so much, Don’t think so much

Echoed in my ear….

What does that mean –

Don’t expect so much,

Don’t love so much,

Don’t feel so much,

Don’t trust so much.

 

“I love you”,

“If you are not happy; neither am I”,

And,

“Don’t you trust me?”,

Were the sweet sounds, I still remember,

The lovely words, you carved in my heart and mind.

 

And when I fell, When I fell hard,

When I felt weak, Tired and Lost;

I searched for you,

Because, Yes I trust you;

But I could not find,

What I needed the most.

 

I showed you the scars behind my beauty,

The pain behind my smile,

I told you the fear behind my strength,

Hoping you would brace me tight;

And I will rest a little,

Before I could again fight.

 

For those who love you,

Extend their hands to pull you up,

Every time you fall;

And not just say –

“That’s not the deepest place one fell,

That’s not a problem that grave,

Why are you so weak?

Why is the help you ask?

For we all are busy in life,

And you should be more understanding;

For I could appreciate your smile,

But come your tears and I go away a mile.”

 

Then I realized –

We know different languages,

It is just a matter of time;

Sometimes we speak the same,

Sometimes we don’t.

And in that moment –

Love was my language,

Practicality was yours.

 

I will cross all hurdles

Tiny, Small, Big

But with you by my side………

Let it be,

I know I am strong enough.

Closer to You

Tanvi_Manisha

When the Stars shine and the Moon light brightens the darkness of the world,

My heart aches to listen to your heart beat and feel you that much near;

When I feel your absence even in the presence of everyone around,

And my heart craves to listen to my name,

When you call me, Aha! How sweet it sounds;

Has distance ever been able to,

Stop the madness of such a crazy heart,

My weakness for you is the power,

That will cease the distances that do us apart;

When my eyes meet yours,

What matters to Me….

The curve that stretches from one to other corner of your lips,

Is all what I wish, Is all that I wish to see.

Because winners don’t QUIT

Tanvi_Manisha

Every time I Fall,

I realise I was trying to climb up;

Every time I feel Lost,

I realise I was trying to find the path;

Every time I stop to rest,

I realise I am trying to keep walking ahead;

Every time I see challenges,

I realize I am trying to prove myself.

 

May be I am yet very far,

May be it will take years,

But what matters is –

Every time and in Every moment,

I am trying, And I have NOT given up;

Neither my Dreams,

Nor my zeal to RUN.

 

The start is a step ahead,

Most important amongst the rest of ALL;

Goals achieved one day,

Will be the victory,

But, my pride still will be in my story,

Of how I got up, After every fall…..
