SHOES

Walking across the Brooke
We admire all around but fail to look
What would happen if they barefooted you
Bleeding from the rough stones,you would hardly have any clue
Just like we rarely see what parents do
Always acting like a shield and behaving like a shoe.

A shoe is useless without its sole
And so is a human being without his soul
The physical body is just a broken shoe
Only the mind can decide what it can do;
A pair of shoes is a great resource
But a single one,worthless even with herculean force
So is the society,so are we
Who wins is always 'us' and not the 'me'.

Ever noticed the shoelaces
That you tie in a load of paces
One loose one tight just a perfect balance
So like your traits to build the proper performance
All day long you work so hard
And so do your shoes without saying a word
Still they prefer to be on the ground
Being so humble till success is found
No matter what they are never proud
Never like your mouth,so loud.



The new ones look so fashionable and cool
But fails to be comfy and dull
Just like moving from school to college
All the while exciting yet on the edge;
They lose their color and shine
As they grow,yet seem to be working fine
Just like the human body and mind
Does so well being too kind
But once in a while they need a good polish
To rewind and save from feeling hellish.

Perfect, Not Perfect

  Behind closed doors when the curtain closes, Too many voices screaming through A few rooms extend to that of a million losses All they are obsessed with what was never true; Stumbling back falling in the globe of fake smiles Every bit so damn perfect ,never fails to leave cue, Expectations running ahead a million miles Leaving to deal with a state of Black and Blue! Falling back again ,pretending what we never saw Still making alive through thick and thin Invisible scratches on the pale skin, they like to draw  Hiding away from the world, away in the ripped jean. Perfect ,ever been so damn perfect Now it's scary to be the odd one out; Just like the fortune cookies burned beyond baked Never gets old what the fuss is all 'bout! That distant world of constant criticism All they do is judge at the first sight Breaking up the bars of the good old prison Who ever returned unstained from such a fight?  An unhappy generation with  happy pictures Ashamed of a broken heart h...

Busy-Streets

Lost in the crowds of the busy street Misty eyes as they rung the final bell Turn back time where they used to meet, Forgotten lanes lead to the pain of hell. Remember those barren paths you left behind? How they flourish the way they never happened before, Imagine those moments that you never captured? How they put a smile even when you thought it was too hard! They took him instead of her Oh my dreaded tracks,you love to fade Flames so hot they took him afar Mourning peace bestowed upon the dead.   Busy streets,cars still go on, Miles apart they left me a bit torn.

Lone Light

Lost in the city of star Found the lone glory of the Moon. Away you took your breath at noon, To play in that grave where you are. Often you have me for the walk, Looking in old grass with your feet; Come on the good clear summer street Lest you could hear an earnest knock! Never you had to break the tale, Nor could I choose to measure the time  Neither too close! no sad night-time Around me, lies an old black trail. Wild wanderer, from my past night, Never a star with snow and mist. A light from which I stood a fist Across the blizzard and past the fight. The sun was gold. The snow too gray, Pale as a cloud the morning met; Eyes like a full day in the net, Making all sweet part of this day. View us on Youtube:  Shreya's Poetry Also Check out: Miss Ya
