Mistake
Mistake
After you've done everything you wanted to do
What else is there to be explored and go through
If you had a choice, will there be something
You would like to undo?
You think back and blink your eyes
You look for things you did wrong and those you did right
What exactly could you name a mistake?
What are the things that were at stake?
You sat on the swing in the night and began to contemplate
Life is all about ups and downs
Like the swing on which you are trying to frown
The more you push the higher you go
The zeal to achieve something great
Taking something that's beyond your fate
You smile at the moon
If only you had known
You could've done something better
To change your future forever
But would you be here
Thinking without blinking
Sitting on a swing of hope
Why don't I think about the good things?
Why life is all about bling?
The nights get dark
The winds get cold
You remember the day
The hands that you hold
The people that were close
The gems that you lost
But now you're all alone
What is that sound?
Is it the sound of nature
The sky, the earth, and every living thing
Are singing a song?
What is this?
Are you crying?
Was coming here a mistake?
It was a risk you had to take
You smile and this time
It's not fake!
Pushing the swing
You go up in the sky
You see the light
Everyone you had
Everything you lost
Was in sight
Nothing was even worth the fight
Only if you had enjoyed
The moments of joy
Instead of sorrow and pain
From things you didn't gain
But you could never refrain
That was the beginning of your bane
Why no one
Values what they have
And leave what they can't
Dreams are okay to keep
But only if they let you sleep
Don't be tensed
Give yourself some air to breathe
You don't have to stay on your feet
You won't be where you are
If you did everything right
You may laugh at it now
But you know I am right
This is not the end
It's a new journey
Of finding who you are
And what you want to be
