Could not walk, just managed to talk
Yawned all through the day,
Propped against a pillow, sheets and cushions,
Nothing was going my way.
Grey skies outside, a dull flat breeze,
Smoke by the windows.
Shrieks of laughter of children playing,
Added to my woes.
Read a few lines of a crime thriller,
Didn’t make much difference to my mood,
Until this spark crossed my mind
And here is what ensued.
Wrote mails and letters
In poem and prose
To long forgotten
Friends and foes.
Called up my friends,
We spoke for long,
Suddenly, the world, it seemed,
Sang a beautiful song.
Now clouds have parted,
And I see the sun,
And I can smell a fresh breeze,
When a new day has begun.
Thank you my friends,
I know you care,
I shall never forget,
This love we share.

Yup! When you feel downtrodden and out,
Put pen to paper and shout,
To all the world, in ringing rhymes,
'N lo behold, be transported to better times.
Could not help but borrow....
When the day is long and the night, the night is yours alone,
When you're sure you've had enough of this life, well hang on
Don't let yourself go, 'cause everybody cries and everybody hurts sometimes
