So I begin my second year of engineering!! I finally enter the portals of the most feared branch- Electrical and Electronics. Its been two days and already the heat is on!! I miss my friends and family, but their love keeps me going strong. So this poem is about what I've experienced in the last few days...

As life slowly moves along,
The path to success seems very long.
Too much competition too much stress,
Damn my life is in a mess.

Its tough to go on during times like these,
Trying to open a lock without any keys.
When success seems far away,
All day and all night I simply pray.

The burden of expectations is becoming heavier,
The pain of failure is becoming more and more severe.
I need someone to lift my soul,
And to fill up this massive hole.

Baby I miss your arms around me,
I wish we were the way we used to be.
But I close my eyes and find you here,
Coz the ones we truly love always stay near.

My heart is filled with your love and care,
Such is the magic of the love we share.
So thru the ashes I will again rise
Coz true spirit in the heart never dies
Leaving behind nights of terror and fear, I rise
Into a daybreak that's wondrously clear, I rise. . . .
