Stand Tall

It's moving deep in my head,
Everything they had once said,
Getting up after every fall,
Never did we slow down at all,
& thats when I learnt to 'Move on'


But then,

My dreams have been shattered,
In all the fights I've been battered,
All the tasks we all face,
Instil in us that life is a race,
We all sit here waiting for miracles,
Our mind roaming around in circles


There is so much hidden behind the smile,
Something no one will be able to find,
The tears behind the joyful face,
You just cannot understand my case,


Failure is something I haven't learnt,
Wish my soul in hell be burnt,
I really wanna cry my heart out,
Wish someone could hear my inner shout,


But then that's not the way I have been taught,
It's not the way I should have thought,
Always been taught to be strong,
To oppose everything we feel is wrong,
To be fighting till the end,
No matter how many rules we have to bend,
We have to make sure that even after every fall,
It's always remains Us who stands tall!

A Toast To Our Friendship

It was the month of August I remember, When for the first time we were together,  Unaware of what awaited us ahead,  All those moments going through my head, And so I raise, A toast to our friendship  I was new to this place, Thought finding friends would be the toughest task I'd face,  But then you all came along,  And now I realise where I belong,  And that's why I raise, A toast to our friendship  We started talking more and more,  Even in moments of sorrow we made sure,  We were there for each other,  Our love started growing every time we met one another,  And So I raise,  A toast to our friendship  And now we stand here, Just a year before we depart,  School may end but we would never be apart,  The bond we share, the way we care,  Losing you all is something I wouldn't even dare,  And tha...

Being Indian

As I stand here in front of you, Let's not talk about something you already know, Let's not talk about how great we Indians are, Let's reflect a bit of tradition that is ours Over the course of thousands of years, Our mother land went through a lot of smiles & tears, From the intelligence of our mathematicians to the bravery of the soldiers, From the riches of our heritage to the mixture of our cultures, There are endless things to discuss about, Endless thoughts running throughout But I wasn't asked to discuss all this, 'Cause most of you have it on your fingertips, I was here to share our Indian pride, How all of us must have enjoyed this ride, From the stories we've heard of our Independence struggle, To the CWG's criticism & appreciation juggle, I'm sure we all had that big smile on our face, When our nation came 2nd in the medal race, The Patriotic feeli...

Trapped

Unable to express these feelings inside, Boiling throughout with rage, As he tries to look far wide, Finds himself trapped within the cage Powerless to break past these shackles, Stuck within the circle of duty, Shaking up his heart's hackles, No longer enjoying the spring beauty Withering down like autumn leaves, Breaking apart piece by piece, Smoked up everything he believes, Hopeless for any kind of peace Being chased away into darkness, Defenceless against his ferocity, Scarred along with his word's sharpness, Can't help but endure his animosity Hiding behind the veil of attachment, Entangled fear becoming rife, Resolves around the final judgement, Escaping his forlorn state of life
