Ray of Light – My First Poem

Ray of Light – My First Poem
February 10, 2016 by Lily Grover
Poems

My First ever poem that I wrote when I was in college. I was missing the days when pocket-money and homework used to be a big deal and I wrote down the words which were dancing in my mind. Never knew it’s going to be the start of something so big for me…

 
I loved the days when I was a little child…
Had a sweet life with nothing to hide…
With an innocent mind had a dream world to ride…
Had friends who fight but never left my side…
 
My pocket was empty but mind satisfied…
Was a heroine for my parents but don’t know what to do with my life…
My world was very small but peaceful and quite…
I was free to cry but had big reasons to smile…
 
One day I wished I want to be big…
With no one ordering and my own life to dig…
I wanted to be a champion, a really big star…
With the money I earned and a big car…
 




 
I wanted to cross the limits of being a child…
But just got trapped in a web I never liked…
My wish got true I became big and wise…
But life was never so happy and lost its price…
 
Now I have more people to hate than the count of my friends…
And huge fights that never ends…
I have lots of money to buy things I like…
I am free to roam and do whatever I like…
But the toffee I got being a child…
Made me felt more satisfied…
I have less to speak more to hide…
 
Life is now more like a mystery, very big very wide…
But then I just got a ray of light…
That came out of my own mind…
Even if I lost my life’s simplicity and innocence…
But still I got some reasons to smile and a few friends with sense…
 




 
Parents who will never leave my hand…
Friends and siblings who always ready to take a stand…
Every coin has its two sides…
If we take it positively everything is bright…
 
Even if I am lost I am always with me…
Anyone can but at least I cannot leave me…
On the way to success and a goal to earn…
All my tensions and sorrows will burn…
I can handle anything with a big smile…
But still.. I really miss the days when I was a little child.. 🙁

Dear Writer,
I’m a reader & i love reading. But at this phase of life where I’m trying to grow up and find my self-worth, add some self-confidence and earn some self-respect, facing the reality is very depressing. In those depressing moments Reading has always been my escape from the real world and a very good distraction. Reading your poems distract me and also inspire me to not to give up. As it is a Ray of Light.
