Second Chances Poem by Ashwin Alex

Like memories in albums life fades,
ever thought of second chances?
ever got tired of wishing?
forever is never enough.

Hopeless, hopeless evermore,
hunger strikes me lay waste
wish to hide from time! but dont know how,
want to get high, but cant stand the hang!

As the cold chill pierce my body
i realize the death grip am in,
the animal does the trick
unknowingly knowing the end.

All is vain, wish i could resist,
all pains no gains, is it fair?
sad that life isnt!
but is it the end?

Cheer up my soul, long for the unseen,
cherish the moments, glorious ones,
take charge, do it for once!
realise the end is not too far!

As worthless life can be, so are dreams,
quit dreaming, start living.
nourish life like an expecting one!
is life worth the regrets?

Be still, feel the pain and love,
love to forget the pain,
never forget the pain to love,
quit quitting and start living!
