Hope of a Soul....

Hope of a Soul....

Time moves on embracing life
Life segued on from days of
Joy and happiness
To the ones bearing
A shalom of loneliness
Loneliness I hid with a smile
While, smile was actually away a mile
And the world thought that I had it all
While
I was waiting for you gently and dreamily....


Success smiled like a flower
A flower of immortal emotions
Endeavors were of passion to be someone
While someone hid all the passions
Days became of plaudits and of self
While plaudits from someone wasn’t there at all
And then the world thought that I had it all
While
I was waiting for you gently and dreamily....


Like birds came friends with a
Gift of care and freedom
Souvenir of success sustained them for a while
Their real-self I recognized
Yet embraced them with love and care
Which they considered too sweet to revert
While wishing luck for happy life
They flew not to return
And the world thought that I had it all
While
I was waiting for you gently and dreamily....


Love of deity bloomed more each day
Making my countenance grow more
Happier, calmer and serene
Kept me happy in loneliness of emotions
Anjel blessed its beauty and mien
With roseate halcyon days
Embellished in me its sensitive beauty
World I kept praising about
So that god may take me away
From it in his own lap of complacency
But reality of desperate loneliness wasn’t quixotic
And the world thought that I had it all
While
I was waiting for you gently and dreamily....


Happiness I restricted to that of others
While others never took care of my happiness
Life remained but only as a hope
Hope that time would favor as a friend
And time didn’t made me cadge anymore
My happiness
Making me learn to see hope in a
Happier soul in my self
A soul of self-happiness, self-support, self-love
Not restricting my happiness to somebody particular
And then I thought I had it all for now and forever
While
Somebody has always been there waiting for me
In reality of fantasy of life
While
Time and life made visible the area overshadowed by loneliness
Where you have been waiting for me always gently and dreamily....

Are you preparing for GRE/CAT. Your usage of words is exotic. Try keeping it simple so that you can communicate your thoughts to a wide spectrum of people..I mean even those who are not preparing for GRE..like me

This is the purpose of your blog..right?

Hey, am pointing out a few things..hope you wouldn't mind..."With roseate halcyon days"..
what did you mean by this...and anjel should be angel!!! though i like that spelling more...
"And time didn’t made me cadge anymore"... it should be make and not made....
"While plaudits from someone wasn’t there at all"
it should be "weren't there at all" ...
and what did you mean by shalom of loneliness...
"Endeavors were of passion to be someone"
plz explain this line...
I'll not write the good things over here....

Krishan: I am not preparing for anything. I aim people who have literary bent, not everyone. So its not meant for everyone. Everything Complex possess an element of simplicity in itself.

This blog is not meant to serve any purpose. thanks for reading through though.

swetank: I dont mind any kind if sarcasm!
'with roseate halycon days'>> it depends on the reader to make out whatever he/she can of it..(I generally dont like to give an explanation but anyways..)

Roseate color generally signifies care, warmth and love..for me..for some other person it might be an association with love alone, and might give out a sad meaning..so it depends on your mood..how you wanna take it.. days can be roseate..days can be of love n warmth and says can also be of memories of past love that had roseate range of emotions..

The word 'anjel' has intentionally been used, nothing more to say.. there were some reasons..

///made>>>wasn't ///

thanks, i know.. shall change it whenever i feel like..

'shalom of happiness' : (you must be knowing its a hebrew word meaning peace used for saying hello) shalom of loneliness can be seen in two ways: if you use it as a means of saying'hello' then you can make out that the way a person is saying to someone else lacks any sort of attachment and emotions and hence it gives out loneliness.. even a small hello while greeting lacks the emotions that the person in the poem desires..
and if you use it as 'peace' then its very obvious, that the peace was there, and it gave some satisfaction but then it brought loneliness as well..

'endeavors were of passion to be someone' : it simply means that the endeavors were possessed with passion to be someone..to be somebody..in life..

well, the only good thing is 'silent understanding', and you can't really write that..can you?
