A Troubled Mind

The agony has to end - but
Is it a beginning or an end?
As the tough time is ahead; I’m fighting
Back myself with prayers in my heart.
Life has taken many a coarse,
I've seen your guiding hand;
I remember hugging your finger with closed eyes;
Held breath, while you lead me through.
I'm sure you'll make a way for me
Where there seems to be no way
With no assurance for sure,
The end seems to be vague.
Oh God! I surrender myself unto you,
I beseech you to decide for me
For I need not regret later.
I'm aware of your awesome presence,
The works of your mighty hands
Free me from my strangles, I fall
Flat on my face, I kiss your nailed feet.

An Evening Walk

At dusk, I started for a walk,
Alone, along a lonely road side
With thick, tall woods.
Cool breeze, twittering birds
poked me to loiter further - With
Lingering thoughts of the day.
Tightening my shawl, I stared
At the blue mountains,
Standing still.
That made me think;
No matter what happens,
Nothing can disturb my peace
And stumble me down-Only
If I could get over myself.
With joy in my heart,
I quickened my steps towards my domicile.

Mirror-My Treasure!

I had a mirror!
It's a darling to me
But once-Without my
Knowledge,
I dropped it down,
It broke into pieces
Alas! that made me sad.
But still, I felt happy!
That I could seeMany faces of mine.
The worser's thatWhen I came to know,
It had not broken
Into pieces-But
To Dust.
Still, I’ve gathered them
Hoping to do something with it!
Will you help me?
