Poem- "Unbound Dreams"

 

A girl, an only child, was she, 

With dreams as vast as open sea, 

But her parents, with love sincere,

Kept her close, a cause for her to fear.


She wished to run, to be, unbound,

In the world's embrace, to be found,

 Yet her parents worried, held her tight,

But they don't know when she cries at night,

She longs to break free from the four walls,

To answer the world's adventurous Calls.


In the silence, she dreams of distant places, 

And yearns for life's open, wide spaces,

Her spirit, a wild bird trapped in a cage,

She longs to break free, then a new page.


Her tears, hidden in the still of the Night, 

Holds the secret of her heart's quiet fight,

For they don't see her dreams taking flight,

 But she hopes one day, everything will be alright.

With patience and time, her heart prays,

For that moment to come, she would have her day.

Poem - Paths of Ambition

  In life, there are two things I want to do, One's to teach, the other to start something new. As a teacher, I'd help kids learn and grow, In a classroom, my knowledge I'd bestow. But business also tempts me well, To create, to lead, to find my jewel. In the world of trade, I'd give my best, With hard work and skills put to the test. Choosing between them isn't a breeze, Both have their joys, and both can please. No matter which path, I'll stand tall, And give it my all, to conquer it all

Incident that shattered me........

 In a world where love should guide our way, A tale of choices on a fateful day, My parents brought a boy with dreams anew, But my heart was tethered, my love was true. I stood there torn, my heart in a bind, For another's love had captured my mind, I couldn't forsake what my heart held dear, Even if the path ahead was unclear. They said he had everything one could desire, Wealth and status that could easily inspire, But I knew deep inside, my heart wouldn't sway, For love, not riches, would light my way. I stayed steadfast, my love unwavering, For the one who had my heart, I was saving, Though my friend questioned why I'd let go, I held to my belief, love's truth I'd show. For riches and status may come and go, But a love like ours would forever grow, Money may matter to some, it's true, But for me, love was the only glue. In the end, I chose the path of the heart, For love's enduring flame, I'd never depart, I'll stand by the one I've chose...
