Some people win. Some people lose. But you haven't really lost Till you lose heart. It's better to fall and learn. It's better to fail Than succeed by fluke, Not knowing what you did right. So don't be afraid to lose. So don't think you're unlucky. Because when you know enough, One day, you’ll surely [...]

What You Don’t Say
You don’t say it. You just stay Right behind me, Steady as a rock, Luminous as a lighthouse, Every time you feel I'm going to fall. You don’t say it. You just stay Ready to catch me, Eyes of concern, Mind of alertness, Every time I plunge Into the unknown. But when I don't fall, [...]
Be Your Best Friend
Be your best friend. Listen to yourself. Believe in yourself. Cheer on yourself. Be your best friend. Be kind to yourself. Forgive yourself. Let go for yourself. Be your best friend. Spend time with yourself. Do things for yourself. Be content with yourself. Because then And only then, Can you ever truly Be someone else's [...]

Of course, I have many a care, Real-life [...]
Love’s Sight
Do you know that feeling When you see someone And out of the blue, Your heart skips a beat? Do you know that feeling When the world around disappears And all you can see Is the person in front of you? Do you know that feeling When as it happens And unknowingly, You lose a [...]
Nah to Hating
When someone said, "There must be at least One person you hate," I couldn't recall a name. That's when I realized I have outgrown hating. Now I just block, And when possible, Immediately delete Thoughts, situations, people. Hating takes energy. I have my limits. I would rather invest My energy and time In what or [...]
Plans
I used to plan Anything and everything, Till I realized Plans don't always work. Life works. Now I am behind on So many life goals That the younger me Had meticulously planned. Life happened. Yet, even today, I wish, hope and believe. I even prepare myself. Call it planning, if you will. Life for me [...]
