And he quit

And he said he quits
Things were going hay-way
Some steps forward some drifting away
Friends whom he trusted 
Got him busted 
When he needed someone's shoulder  for a louder moan 
He was left all alone
And he said he quits

And he quit
Quit the thought that life will always be a perfect fit
With only roses and no stones to hit
Quit the idea that friends will always be there to rescue him
Not because they don't want to but because no one at all times can be prim
Quit the feeling that he has to sit and cry when he will fail
With a realization that in life sometimes things dip and sometimes sail
And he quit.

Since the time he has quit
It's not that things didn;t go down 
But things going down never made him frown
It's not that he didn't need caring  friend
But even when none was there his hand became his supporting band
It's not that he became all successful and hit
But even when he failed he could quit the thought he could ever quit.

  1. Only when you take a risk is there a reward. Taking a different path in life can be scary, lonely and difficult, but in the end it is always worth it :)

    Follow your heart and your dreams!

मन एक जुलाहा

मन एक जुलाहा फंसी डोर सुलझाना, चाहे सिरा मिले न मिले कोशिश से नहीं कतराना, जाने मन ही मन कि जब तक जीवन तब तक उलझनों का तराना फिर भी डोर सुलझ...
