There’s so many things to do
And so little time…
Dreams to be achieved,
Records to be set,
Adventures to be seeked,
Parents to be made proud,
Dream house to be bought,
Gym to be hit,
Healthier life to be lead,
Fine literature to be read ,
Books to be written,
Movies to be watched ,
Friends to be caught up with,
And on and on goes the list.
Yet nothing has been done…
As day by day I grow older,
And lot more lazier,
Lot more demotivated,
And I see my life pass by,
As if it’s someone else’s.
I wake up tired,
Go to sleep tired,
I live tired,
Each day stealing a part of me,
That I myself am unknown to.
Million of thoughts in my mind,
Not one I can comprehend.
Then I try, I try, and I try
On and on again…
To get a grip of myself,
Only to find myself falling apart.
Pulled apart by millions of thoughts,
I try to empty my mind,
Only to drown in imagination again.
Yet again I kill a day.
Not an inch closer to my dream,
There goes the cycle of my life,
Trying to get control of myself.
But then I see a glimmer of hope,
As I see myself rise again.
It matters not, how many times I fall apart,
I keep trying every single day,
Even when I’m beaten and battered,
I know I’ll rise again another day.
So I try, try and try,
Eyes on the goal,
Gripping myself together.
Cause there’s so many things to do
And so little time…

Thank you so much ❤️
Loved the wavelength of your poetry….it flowed so smooth and ended up well. Like a brook flowing through its course before being engulfed by the sea. Indeed happiness prevails in the end and if happiness is still missing, then……”fill in the blanks”……..
I hope you got that! 🙂
Thanks a million dear. This comment is a poetry in itself. But I didn’t get the …. “fill in the blanks” 🤗💕
Lemme answer that in poetic way…
freshly baked for you!!
“We dream, We try
And in the process
Sometimes; we fail!
Never doubt yourself
Because in the end
Happiness prevails!!
And if happiness seems
Standing miles apart!
Don’t stop the efforts
Never loose your heart!!
Coz It’s not the end of the trip
You’ll reach your goals….
Just don’t loosen the grip!!!”
Wow!!! You’re amazing! 🙈💕💖❤️
And as they say in desi slang…
“Picture abhi baaki hai mere dost”
Haha… Typical srk! ❤️💖💕
I loved the whole idea behind the picture. You gave a voice to that picture. You wouldn’t have done it any better and at the same time it’s voice of the youth. We are all going through same thing .
You truly justified it❣️❣️
Thanks a million Rashmi. 🙈🙈🙈🙈💖💖💖💖😘😘😘😘😘
Be strong. You are strong. We are all faced right now with too much time on one hand and, on the other, none it seems for the things we used to take for granted. But the conclusion of the poem shows that you are someone who will succeed because you have youth and tenacity in abundance.
Thank you so much Xavier. This means a lot to me. How’s everything at your end?
Oops. I think I just liked my own comment! I meant to like yours. Cool blue sky today. Cannot complain. As you say, so much we could do…but where to start?
