veena srinivas Poems

I once had a dream,
That I cherished held and true.
Long ago it seemed so simple,
But now so hard and vague.
...

It struck me out of the blue,
That I always looked out for you.
How is it that you never noticed me,
For once just look around and me you would see.
...

Looking down my memory lane,
I hush my tears that do not wane.
Loving you seems a bane,
My life without you has become just so lame.
...

I trusted you truly,
I loved you unconditionally,
I hold precious my feelings for you Deeply,
But,
...

When the whole world seems so against you,
When even your shadow gleefully deserts you,
When the very life in you seems to dry out,
Take heart my friend,
...

Trials and tribulations are a part of life,
Bear them.
Loyalty and treachery are a part of life,
Taste them.
...

Many a times I sit and ponder,
'What have I achieved in life? '
Many things I have done
Make me wonder,
...
