I WILL

I WILL

Climb, I will ..The highest peak

Walk, I will ..Till my knees go weak

Laugh, I will ..At the funniest joke

Cry, I will ..But you not gonna know

Experience, I will ..To learn from it

Decide, I will ..What will be my fate

Dare, I will ..The scariest feat

Fear, I will ..To get over it

Dream, I will ..A fairy-tale life

Reach, I will ..My goals against all strife

Win, I will ..All the love that i want

Lose, I will ..Memories that are better lost

Love, I will ..You, for being at my side

Hate, I will ..Times you were not beside

Cherish, I will ..All the happy moments

Repent, I will ..That things had to end

Pray, I will

To the Almighty Lord

For strength and will

So that i realize it all!!

YET I DREAM

YET I DREAM

I am chained and shackled

I am bound and held

Restrained by rules undefined

Yet, I dream of FREEDOM for self!!

I am crying out loud

I am struggling in pain

Too much of greif to swallow

Yet, I dream of HAPPINESS to come and stay!!

I am lost without you

I am all alone since u left

You no more feel the need to care

Yet, I dream of LOVE I would share!!

I am numb and still

I am cold in death

Just the hollow soul remains

Yet, I dream of LIFE I could be blessed!!

I am breaking down

I have gone weak

No more do i have my faith

Yet, I dream of HOPE to lead my way!!

Lies and liars

Trust is no more

Reality seems myth

Yet, I dream of TRUTH that shall prevail!!

There is war

There is violence

World is shattered by the two

Yet, I dream of PEACE one day!!

SOLILOQUY

SOLILOQUY

Here resides in me a melancholy

Deep down within me

Otherwise it’s all numbness,

And the air I no more breathe in

Darkness and despair is the surrounding

Voices I hear are crying there heart out

Gloomy and grey is the dull scene

Is this the land of death I had heard about?

Every emotion is null and void here

Nothing else matters anyhow

No life to live, no hopes nor dreams

Just this soliloquy that I sing now

But amidst all the buried souls here

My voice is somewhere drowned

Luxation with life has been jarring

I realize it when death I have already found.

JUST A PERSPECTIVE

JUST A PERSPECTIVE

Words I think are greatest discovery

Imagine without them expressing your soul

Colors in Nature I am fascinated with

With just black and white, 

life would have no meaning at all!

Time and Life are melodiously paced

And things happen when they are meant for

MY FAIRY TALE

I am .. not a princess from some fairy tale

But indeed in them you find a bit of your real self

MY FAIRY TALE

Copyright © SHRAVANI MUKHERJEE

I am .. a bit of Aurora, the fair

The sleeping beauty in her lair

Not that I am in some deep slumber

But like her I too am an eternal dreamer

I am .. a bit of the naïve Pochahontas

The dusky beauty with a slender stature

Sings from her heart the songs that are joyous

‘Cause she could feel & hear the happy spirits of Nature

I am .. a bit of patient Snow White may be

The fairest among all famously

In judgments I stress, the seven dwarf’s friend

And yeah I too am tempted by those apples red

I am .. a bit of the aquatic princess Ariel

Rest assured am not a mermaid in real

Her cheerful soul from Neptune’s world

Is what reflected in my smile of few volts

I am .. a bit of the warrior Mulan

The Chinese heroine, a war she had won

Known for her zeal, courage and skill

She led her army ‘cause she had her strong will

I am .. a bit of Belle, the popular beauty

Freed the Beast from evil enchanting

Her love for books was as deep

As her very outlook that beauty lies within

I am .. a bit of the Arabian Jasmine

The princess whose pet was a wild feline

She was one of the three wishes of Aladdin

Believed in her love, which her hero did rightfully win

I am .. a bit of the fairy Tinkerbell

Whose powers are the pixie dust spells

Just like mine, which are in my words

But our Peter Pans just never realize our worth

I am .. a bit of the pretty Cinder girl

Cinderella, who charmed the Charming of all

Not that I lose my slippers here & there darling

But my faith in God, like hers in her Fairy Godmother is everlasting

I am .. just a Girl after all

Who rises up everytime she has a fall

‘Cause that’s how you grow up in Real life

With still many dreams yet to realize!!

CRUSH!

Sometimes I think .. should write about you

What I so much like and dislike in you

So heres a list of things that i do like about you

And the very things why I hate in you

Copyright © SHRAVANI MUKHERJEE

LOVE about you . .

Your Eyes, they captivate me

Your Smile, that brings mine on my lips

Your Song, with words that string perfectly

Your Voice, in whose depths I am always lost

Your Looks, most charming of all

And its you, for always whom

Feelings I harbour deep inside my heart

HATE about you . .

Your Eyes, can't see what I feel

Your Tears, you never share with me

Your Song, will you ever write for me?

Your Voice, you never call me with

Your Charms, keep bewitching me!!

And its you, 'cause you care for all but me

Breaks my heart that I just can't forget thee
