They say creation and destruction are two sides of the same coin. And the time between each creation and its successive destruction- the inter-phase is what's commonly called life.
But the point is maybe the ending to something good is just the beginning of something even better. Better people,better experiences and better choices and sometimes it is just good to start all over again but this time properly implementing what the previous person or experience taught you.
So here I've a poem I wrote in the last 30 minutes of our 9th grade annual examinations...
To the New Endings
The year has ended finally,
Although the exams felt like eternity,
The school year passed away in friendships and fraternity.
People say life is a journey,
But this year I realised its irony,
People will enter your life,
Shake it up a bit,
And get down eventually,
Leaving you in solitary.
Maybe that is life ,
Not just heart and flowers but also the damned knife,
But we still face it everyday,
With our hopes and esteems high,
Willing to reach a place no one can find.
But with sadness and the heartbreaks
Came the madness, the craziness and the learning
And in me came the improvisations and the power,
To next year again face the ever changing, masked and mediocre civilization.
But it'll be different now,
Not the same me, not the same experiences around,
With new hopes and aspirations,
I shall welcome the new world for now.
And one day when I'll have all these people in the journey with me again,
I'll thank them for the wonderful moments and the falls they brought to me,
For the moments gave me memories and the falls gave me wisdom,
And tell them that whatever we were- friends or foes
I'll always love them all.
