Down the memory lane..

Solitude lets you converse with your soul, just had a lil chit chat with mine..

Down the memory lane..

Walking down the memory lane,
feeling the misery, feeling the pain.

I stare through the windows of my blurry past,
the horizon of joys was never too vast.

I rubbed the screen , to have a clear vision,
where had I gone? what was my mission?

Deviated from the path, I had always been on
I started a new voyage, hoping a new dawn.

Further and further as I walked through that road,
I later on realized, I had burdened my load.

There were no rewinds, space for no more correction,
Somewhere behind, I had lost my ambition.

I walked alone, with no peers around.
in a stagnant condition, got myself bound.

It seemed so bright, when it was the start,
I had lost my soul, and killed my heart.

They blame it on you, but they don’t know,
I’m good to others, to myself, a foe.

Now I surely agree, it was all my fault,
I’d prepare myself, for another revolt.

  1. very well written shaggy kid..liked it..nd how u write those poems so quick :S..and its interesting how one is foe to own self and good to others.:S..i dun think it happens in reality..

    1. these sort of poems are not written.they just come in mind :)..nd it comes often in ur mind in quick times :)..nd i dun agree with u..even if apparently it seems a person is foe of himself..actually he is doing all for his own self..to satisfy his own self..in reality no one is foe of his own self. Every one is selfish and every act is done for own self even if it is for own destruction…wat u say???

      1. haha, you may say that. πŸ™‚

        i disagree..there are a few airheads who wish to please others and drag their own lives into destruction. They are just blind enough to chose what’s good or bad for them. Such people do exist.

      2. so that’s my point, even if they destroy theme selves in pleasing others, that’s not blindness, that’s because they feel pleasure in pleasing those that they can even destroy their own selves..so in real sense they are doing this for their own sake..

      3. ya, but thats what they feel with regret later in life..But in the present, they do it all for their own self, not because they are their own enemy..Its only later, when they realize mistake, and think they were their foe, when infact they did it for their own sake that time…
        Anywayz discussion ended..we both won :)..Peace πŸ™‚

      1. why did he del his blog…??? it had nice stuff. 😦

    1. @Lost Soul… Salman was full of life as he pretended so but became unseen good friend of Shagufta and I had only “Comment on posts” relation with him…
      I miss his blog for many reasons…So do Shagufta..

      I pray he would have been alright and blessed where ever he would be…. πŸ™‚

      1. Oh i see, well that is really so nice to see that you people were so sincere to him and he was really lucky. So you were just a comment friend, and shagufta a good one huh?
        Then she might be in contact with him, so why not ask him or call him back? :S

      2. Wow, that is so nice to see that you people were so much sincere to him and he must be really lucky. If shagufta is a good friend of him, then why not call him back etc?

      3. @Lost soul… We will call him back, don’t worry πŸ™‚

        @Shagufta…. Don’t worry little girl.. he will be perfectly alright Inshallah…. Call him, he will be back… πŸ™‚

  2. They blame it on you, but they don’t know,
    I’m good to others, to myself, a foe
    ..

    One can relate to the lines above. Nicely written!

    Good poetry skills, you have! πŸ™‚

  3. @maj one is OFTEN bad to itself while doing good for the others…that is a reality. That is the case with the sensitive people of the world πŸ™‚

    @shaggy: Well written, U know how it feels when u can hear urself speaking to you in solitude,not even does it tell you the truth but also gives u hope for a better future πŸ™‚

    1. @maj:
      See see see πŸ˜€

      @ sana:
      thanks! SERIOUSLY!! It’s like so many clones of yourself are showing the different aspects of the situation to you, scolding you,explaining it to you, discussing with you, teasing you, giving you hope and what not!

  4. Very well written… and i also agree.. for the sake of others yes one does turn a foe to itself… thats my personal experience as well… πŸ™‚
    So called emotional fools… πŸ˜€

  5. The was an honest and reflective poem! A story of comeback! Way to go, Shagufta!!! Cheers!!!!
    Best wishes… and have a lovely week ahead!
