Life is All About Replacement - A Poem About Life

Life is all about replacement,
A cycle that we can't escape,
Old friends drift, new ones come,
In the dance of time, we all take shape.

We replace the laughter, the shared dreams,
The moments that once felt so true,
With faces and voices that fill the space,
As seasons change, so do we too.

No matter how much we give, or how we try,
Some leave us, no matter how good we’ve been,
In the end, others fill the void,
While we remain lost in between.

Things we cherish begin to fade,
Faded books, worn shoes, old clothes,
We trade the past for something new,
Yet, each replacement somehow glows.

People leave, and others arrive,
Some stay forever, others fly,
In their absence, we feel the ache,
But in their place, new bonds we try.

Life, a game of give and take,
Of letting go and holding tight,
As we replace what once was known,
With unknown paths and new light.

In every loss, there's something gained,
In every change, we find our place,
For life is all about replacement,
A journey of constant grace.

Gist of the poem: This poem delves into the bittersweet reality of life's constant cycle of change—the replacement of people, friends, and things that shape our existence. While change is a natural part of growth, it carries with it a sad truth: people often replace one another in our lives, sometimes without intention, as time moves forward. Friendships fade, relationships end, and even memories are swapped for new experiences. In this ever-shifting world, we learn that though replacement is inevitable, it often leaves behind a trace of loss, reminding us of the transient nature of human connection.
The poem acknowledges the emotional pain of being replaced, even when we've given our best, and the inevitability that others will fill the void left behind. It highlights the beauty and growth found in new beginnings.
Through each shift, though difficult, we find new opportunities, connections, and growth. Loss and arrival are part of our journey, teaching us to embrace replacements that help us evolve and discover new paths.

"People replace you no matter how good you are to them because life is all about replacement."

The Few Who Understand

Every day, we meet hundreds of people who wish us hello, hi, and bye. However, there are only a few people who can understand us in our lows and highs. In the noise of the crowd, we often feel lost, drifting through faces, but paying the cost. We share fleeting moments, brief as a sigh, yet crave that connection that reaches the sky. Some offer a smile, while others just stare, but only a few truly show that they care. They listen intently, with hearts open wide, inviting us in, letting feelings collide. Through laughter and sorrow, they walk by our side, their presence a comfort, our fears set aside. So let us treasure those who see through the haze, for they are the light that brightens our days.

बदलते समय, स्थायी सत्य - Changing Times, Constant Truths

कहानी वही होती है। किरदार बदल जाते हैं। रिश्ते वही होते हैं। जज़्बात बदल जाते हैं। दोस्ती वही होती है। अहमियत बदल जाती है। नसीब वही होता है। समय बदल जाता है। The story remains the same; Characters change. Relationships remain, Emotions change. Friendship stays the same; Importance changes. Fate remains the same; Time changes.

In My Garden - A Poem

In my garden, I see life begin to bloom, God’s creation gently rising from the gloom. With colors so vibrant and scents that delight, Nature awakens in the warm morning light. I rise from the ground, becoming a plant, With sunlight, water, and air, I enchant. I take birth in a world that can sometimes be unfair, Yet I’m nurtured with love, care, and affection rare. Though sometimes it feels like love’s just a show, I strive to grow strong and let my true colours show. Capable of making my own food with ease, As I grow tall, I offer shade and peace. I’ve witnessed emotions, both joy and pain, I hold cherished memories like drops of rain. Called a 'Blessed Tree,' I provide shelter so deep, In a world that feels bleak, I guard dreams as they sleep. Surrounded by plants, I watch children play, Listening to laughter as they learn every day. Nurtured by gratitude and affection's bright light, The flowers are children; I bloom with delight.

हमारी सोच में कल है, लेकिन जीना तो हर पल है

हमारी सोच में कल है, लेकिन जीना तो हर पल है, कल पे सवाल है, जीना फिलहाल है। आज की राहों में, हम खुद को खो देते हैं, कल की चाह में, अपने सपने तोड़ देते हैं। जिंदगी के रास्ते में, कभी थमे कभी चले, पर हर पल की अहमियत को हम समझ न पाये। कल के खयालों में हम जीने की कोशिश करते हैं, लेकिन फिलहाल के पल में हम खुद को भूलते हैं। आज की मुस्कान, कल के आंसुओं से ज्यादा है, अगर जीना है, तो अभी का पल ही सही है। कल की उम्मीदें, अक्सर अधूरी रह जाती हैं, पर हर पल में जीने की राह, हमेशा खुलती है। तो हमारी सोच में कल है, लेकिन जीना तो हर पल है, कल पे सवाल है, जीना फिलहाल है। जिंदगी की खूबसूरती, बस आज में बसी है, कल का इंतजार छोड़ो, बस आज को अपना ले। जीवन की सच्चाई यही है कि हम अक्सर भविष्य की चिंता में उलझे रहते हैं, लेकिन असल में हमारे पास जो सबसे कीमती है, वह है वर्तमान। हर पल का जीना ही हमें सच्ची खुशियों और संतुष्टि की ओर ले जाता है। जब हम आज को पूरी तरह से जीते हैं, तभी हम कल की उम्मीदों और ख्वाहिशों से परे, एक सुकून भरी ज़िंदगी का अनुभव करते हैं। इसलिए, जीवन का असली मजा कल के ख्वाबों में नहीं, बल्कि ...
