White SOMETHING I LOOK AT-207 BY-SMRUTI RANJAN MOHANTY DAY AFTER-3 From cradle to the grave Life teaches in its way You may learn and get on with the game Or close your eyes and ears To the beauty of life in each stage In every phase Life offers you something It is up to you You may live it Or a make a mess of it When time snatches away something It makes up in many other ways One who does not accept change And remains in the past Forgets that after every sunset There is a new sunrise Every station of life However fascinating may be Makes way for another Which is different May be more beautiful than the former Who knows? Let me come out of my seclusion And be with the change To feel a different shade of life Which I have never seen before Let me walk on the corridor of life With an empty mind And eyes and ears wide open To see and feel beauty in another form Smruti Ranjan Mohanty© India 3.11.2022 All copyrights reserved https://smrutiweb.wordpress.com/2023/01/08/something-i-look-at-207/ ©Smruti Ranjan Mohanty

White SOMETHING I LOOK AT-303 BY-SMRUTI RANJAN MOHANTY My love! against me, you may have a thousand complaints. You may be finding it difficult to accept me the way I have been You may not accept me, but accept my wishes they don't have an ounce of hypocrisy in them. They carry my love and concern, feelings and emotions. Never doubt these are straight from the heart, my breath and pulse in fact If undelivered they will not come back to me They will loiter hear and there with tears in their eyes I may not be the man of your choice But I will always be with you in your moments of distress You may not share your smile with me But allow me to swallow your tears as mine, exclusively mine You may be the queen of million hearts Forget not someone is silently looking at you from a distance whose only dream is to see you smiling and moving ahead on life's lonely path No more tears The quota of sorrow is over Smile a bit! believe me, it will be cheers and cheers all the way Life is a feast The time has come to celebrate it Add life to life, you will realise how beautiful life is Smruti Ranjan Mohanty ©Smruti Ranjan Mohanty

White SOMETHING I LOOK AT-291 BY-SMRUTI RANJAN MOHANTY What you say yours is not yours. It is mine, exclusively mine. How can I be an alien to my feelings, my emotions, my anxiety and fear, cheer and tear. I understand the language of your heart, listen to its beats, blend and rhyme with it. It is my heart not yours I know where it aches. How can I ignore the pain, remain indifferent to it, turn a deaf ear to my aching soul and dreaming eyes I feel your feelings Know not how to respond in a world that is unlike you and me. The difference is so much, at least I need one more birth to bridge up Something holds me back. Sometimes my conscience, sometimes my situation and upbringing, but in most of the times, it is me who come on my way. Not so easy to come out of the trap. Not easy to feel blood rushing in your veins when your best is already past Sometimes I think let me silently wither away to come as the man of your choice who deserves you, your love like no one else. My love, will you relish it if I do not remain myself, become someone else with whom my surroundings may not identify?
