Move on..move along

The street and lights...
Move along with me..
Move on too..
With the shadow of time..
With the soulless body..
With the decaying stink..
What is constant?
Who stands by?
What love?
Who cries when you cry?
Move on..move along

One day of peace

Wiping the dust, wiping the tears,
Letting go off all apprehensions and all fear,
With music in background and a glass of wine,
I realised what I missed and what wasn't mine,
Why did you go away?...I ask thee,
My soul, my love, my conscience, just me!
I am writing to you, seeking love and care,
Lost in time, it seemed far, not fair! 
Eyes speak of the story and the heart beats a lot,
You should've been around wherever I got caught,
Don't befriend me, cause you are all I got,
Sore nights & sick days is not what I bought,
So I wipe the dust and wipe off the tears...
Wish could buy happiness even if it was dear,
Life's a puzzle and I am running in circles,
Only if I could sing 'Welcome to the jungle!'
The countdown has begun, never to last,
But what's the point, I am still living in the past,

And I keep on searching, I keep on waiting, I keep on thinking, I keep on hunting..For that one day of peace!

What a wonderful world!

I looked back when I couldn't relate ahead,
And all I said was, 'what a wonderful world...'

No baggage but luggage was all I carried,
Entering in a dark yet bright time never made me worried,
I had a vision and was sure not to sway,
Alone to fight, from my people, I was away,
I was oblivious, all I did was chirp like a bird,
Just to turn back today & say 'what a wonderful world....'

Trivial things gave happiness in life,
With head on shoulders, I was ready to survive,
Enchanted stories and wishing chair was all I knew about,
And I believed in fairy tales without a doubt,
Bubble broke..rosy glasses cracked..life isn't anymore coloured,
So I turn back today to say,'what a wonderful world....'

Life became just like a flickering bulb,
& left a lost sense of what to enjoy and what to curb,
Darkness I found just to walk all alone,
They say you reap just what you've sown,
Blanketed by a starry night, a silence so unheard,
And I turned back to say, 'what a wonderful world....'

Flooded with tears, yet a divine smile hid it all,
Head's high, chin's up, sorrows seem so small,
But they cover the heart & there's no one to feel,
The world around sometimes seem so surreal,
Numbness creeped in, encore said people, how curt!
So I turn back today to say,'what a wonderful world....'

Today when I try to find self, I feel so lost,
Gained a lot, pained a lot, guess I made the most,
But  still try to introspect and hunt..Hunt... 
Drew boundaries lest people left me all burnt,
So I wore a mask of happiness yet sight was so blurred,
Today I Have to look back to say, 'what a wonderful world....'
