Walking through the city, I decided to take a few photographs. Total newbie. No experience and still gave a try 🙂

Another Chance
Today life has given me a chance, at-least this once.
Today my steps don’t falter, my coast is clear since months
But it’s just me, I need the courage to move on
Because today I now what to do, I’ve witnessed an early dawn.
It’s like I know the direction, my inner compass is guiding me.
Today I am being my own sun, I own a light to see.
The past of ludicrous acts has long been forgotten now.
Before my doubt and impatience, I don’t need to bow.
I know how to win this time, I’m not afraid to be me.
It’s my own optimism that still enables me to be.
Now I won’t give up, I will do it again.
Life gave me another chance, a rainbow after the rain.

Now
Just Stay
I am not as bad as you think, nor as good as you believe
But just stay with me forever, the good in me I’ll retrieve
Don’t push me from one side to the other, just be a good companion to me
Because everyone surely needs a friend, you and me can become ‘we’
A sweet tie of friendship will bind us together,
Even after our last breath, it will never be over.
Don’t try to calm me when I get mad,
But just stay with me forever, I’ll forget the temper I had
I am not as harsh as you think nor as perfect as you perceive.
I’ll too share your loss, our failure I won’t grieve.
Because when we’ll try again and again we’ll surely succeed.
We’ll help each other get better and we’ll grow together
But don’t you ever leave my side and just stay with me forever.

Love Notes from the Angels
Have a blessed day 🙂
Goodbye
Never think you are far away
from someone you value
they are tucked away in your heart
and you don’t know how.
They are not taken away from you
by the circumstances or by God himself
They are a blessing to you by the Lord
And he might need them back
People are meant to be loved
and things meant to be used
So that we know that we are blessed
and we have been caressed
by the people we tend to lose.
So value people and show them you care
because losing them is hard to dare
Tell them that they are so near
to you and your soul
let them hear
that every goodbye
is hard to bear.

Keep Living
When the sky is clear and the moon is not there,
I feel the lump rising in my throat but now I don’t care.
As I watch the sky , I tell the invisible to shut up,
I want it to stop pitying me, my frail face in my hands I cup.
Whenever I’m pushed out, I show that I don’t care.
I show that I am sulky to fight back every tear.
Then and again I am told to get away, I am told to clear out,
Am I even important? The thought runs me into doubt.
As everybody stings the poison of their words into me,
I know I’ll remember it all till eternity.
Living with the scars is what is to be done now on,
Nothing can be done otherwise, my strength is all gone.
Fake a smile, hold your head high and keep giving,
Because life goes on, it pushes you forward, so keep living.
