Time and tide wait for none

 The ever changing turbulent waves. Mental waves are as turbulent as them


When your friends, find it hard
to have time out for you,
know that thy time is up
don't try to be overdue.

When you see, the one you loved
always explaining they are busy.
Know that to be the sign,
don't make the life messy

Everyone thinks in his own way,
to this i agree fully.
But when someone stops missing you,
accept this fact happily.

Love can't be enforced by will,
Its too sublime for that.
If you don't get one in return,
accept it as your predicament.

Time and distance, always change
our perception and feelings.
why be sad, perplexed by it,
take it in full stride, part of your inning.

Whatever happens, happens for good,
who knows the sorrow has seeds.
of future bloom, rosy days,
at least console yourself in dream.

Never blame, others for things,
life is made by one's own hand.
For this predicament, you alone
yourself are to be blamed.

And why be blamed, it's all a part
of the game of life we play.
Enjoy this sorrow too,
for this shall too pass away.

Bless the soul, who endowed on you
Showers of bliss, golden days.
You can indeed, never repay
the learning of those ways.

Do away with, the attachment which has
clinged to you like an arrow,
Find happiness, in her happy life
why bother over your sorrow.

  5. An appreciable attempt to look at things from a way other than the conventional.

    A nice perspective to facing hurdles in life although, I must say, a little infeasible for anyone to implement. In fact, even the poem hints that though the person talks of being passive about being detached from his dear ones, it is clearly on his mind even now, offering a perfect irony to the entire theme of the poem :)

    Loved the line "...for this too shall pass" though. A line that can help one sail through all difficult times :)

    Attachment isn't something painful in every situation. Attachment is what keeps one holding on to life and going ahead :) It is what makes life worth living for...

  6. nice insight, mr vagabond, as i assume u picked them up in ur itenarary :). but true, that attachment(implicit love) makes the life worth living for. but then again, life has to be like enjoy the best, and be prepared for the worst. because u never know what awaits u in future. and that's why this detachment(inward) is necessary too, though in happier times it may look like something unwanted.
