A PROMISE TO MYSELF

A PROMISE TO MYSELF

It has been few days

when I started thinking of some ways
way to become someone
whom someone would like always.

I learned something from life,
hope this learning will help to find new ways
but is it right to think
I gained all things which I wished always?

Talked to some of my friends,
all showed me new ways
All ends up with only one thing,
but is it the thing which I wanted always.

I write my feelings through such rhymes,
asking, begging to get me some way,
asked my heart a thousand times,
can you bear a heart break when you fail?

I started a new day
to get what I want,
giving it a try,
as my heart told me to do as he says!

I thank to some precious stones of my life
for confusing me with lots of ways
but still I love those emeralds and rubys
who tried to sweep my tears when I tried and tried
and failed always

Today I promise myself
I'll do anything to set all things right in anyway,
I'll be someone oneday,
so as to be loved by all always.
