Goodbye Sweet Love

Goodbye sweet love
I wish you all the best
You have taught me so much, my love
And today, I stand to take the test
It took a few things to go
To get a few things new
Today it does not pain to let go
Regrets and doubts are very few.

Goodbye sweet memories
The past does not haunt me now
I learnt how not to believe your stories
I learnt how to live for myself now
You got me to give up some old wishes
You got me to make some new ones
Today I do not have any grievances
Today I smile with my loved ones.

Goodbye sweet thoughts
I think differently now
Goodbye sweet innocence
I know life much better now
I do not love you anymore sweet love
Nor will I hate you ever
So Goodbye my sweet loveI pray you be happy forever.

Life To Me

I was walking on the beach one night
Walking alone with no one in sight
My mind was filled with a lot of thoughts
Thoughts abstract that I could not fight.

I looked up at the moonlit sky
It seemed to assure that it will protect me
I walked towards the singing waves
Who seemed to sing the songs of life to me.

The wet golden sands comforted my feet
The cool wind played with my long black hair
A voice whispered all that I wanted to know
All that life is about- how it is always fair.

Life is the reality made up of dreams
It is the hope got out of disappointments
It is the peace that evolves from hostility
It is the creation that follows destruction.

The soothing voice explained
How every dark cloud has a silver lining,
How every problem has a solution and
How every end is only another beginning.

I understood I was never alone
I have always had so much of love showered on me
I understood that life is far above the petty sad things
And that it has always been just to me.

The Empty Me

I wanted to see the world
So I left you and went ahead
I wanted to succeed in life
So I abandoned whatever stood in my way
Now that I stand here
Reaching the peak very few can
Why am I all alone?
Why am I repentant?
Why cannot I even share the joy?

I am content but am oblivious
Of what real happiness is
Everybody knows me now
But I have lost my real identity
So karma really does exist?
Am I broken because of
The heartaches I caused long ago?
Was it a miscalculated mistake on my part,
Or was it just simple justified fate?

I have forgotten how to smile
I have given up all those
Who now I know meant the most to me
Is it too late to beg for forgiveness?
Are they too far for me to get them back?
I wish I had listened then
To the shrieking conscience in me
And now everything is gone,
There is nothing left but the empty me.

Always

I can walk alone
But I will like you to walk along with me
I can go alone
But I will like you to come with me
I am happy but you make me happier
I am not lonely but you make me feel complete
Just hold my hand all the time
And always be with me.

I can reach my goals by myself
But I will like you to cheer me on
I can conquer the word by myself
But where is the prize if you are gone?
I am successful but you are my pride
I am thoughtful and you are my reason
Just hold me close
And always love me.

I do not need to be by myself
I do not require doing things alone
I am content with us being together
I am pleased that you are my strength
I am what I am and you let me be
I do what I do and you still cherish me
Just be what you have been
And always let us be.
