Moving On

Dedicated to all my friends!!


It was the moment I had waited for.
It was something I had desired for.
The moment had finally come.
It was the time to move on.

Friends were smiling, wishes given aloud.
I was the centre, rest gathered around.
The clock clicked and I had to leave.
Had all the strength, but the legs didn’t lift.

All of the sudden, all the smiles vanished, silence was in the air.
The happy eyes had become moist, were now filled with tears.
I wondered why this change all of a sudden.
Things that were bright had now turned gloom.

Then it struck me quite hard.
The thought of separation, that we’ll be apart.
This time it’s not a few days thing.
Its gonna be long before we all will meet again.

The bitter truth refused to sink in.
The heart got filled with mixed feelings.
On one side, there was the joy of starting a new life.
The other side had the pain for leaving behind the old life.

Past will always be a reflection of memories.
No matter where you go, it will be your book of favorite stories.
But as the world says – life’s a river that waits for none.
We need to look ahead and keep moving on.

  1. New place, new experiences... but doesn't mean the past is lost. Its always there with you, safe in your heart.
    Things always come in packages - if there is the sadness of separation in the past, there is also the joy of reunion in the future.
    So forget the sorrows, and look forward to it.
