Occasionally in life, drifting along with the current, you stumble upon boulders of little failures, pieces of your soul and your life from the past and sometimes, fragments of what you lost. Some of those things you knew had happened that way, some are testimonies to failures you made but you never realised. And then in that split second, shaken a little by the collision, you snap into consciousness and take a closer look in the disturbed waters. You see a new reflection, one that forever alters your idea of yourself, yet another time.
Occasionally in life, moments you had lived through and forgotten resurface with a new meaning and become your new mirror.

The game of deception
has the side effect
of turning you into someone
if only some part of you
into someone
you didn't wanna become.
Alas, sometimes
it is the only way
you can preserve yourself
if only some part of you
it is the only way
you can survive.

my life in words...or maybe everyone's ...
beautiful ..thought provoking...
Was a bit heavy.
But the peom. wow. U've been just brilliant in your last few posts!
I really like the first paragraph. But I'd say it (mostly) only holds for things you never actually forgot, the pieces that never got totally detached, the moments that linger on. (Ok, my words here sound totally cliched.. almost like that thing they say about old injuries. :) )
there are memories which haunt me forever ...the mistakes i committed ..pushed me back several years ..but yes whenever i remember those days and compare them with my present ...i realise that i have come a long way ..from these days ..it's those days and failures that have helped me to be humble and grateful of every one ... and we all have head fakes in our life..:)
First para is beautiful...every aspect of life is there for some purpose..sometimes we realize it much later...
:) clap clap!!!!
memory can be a curse...

But it was heartfelt.

If you wanna get technical, you probably never really forget any experience that cd remotely fit in here. But cliched is cliched mostly because it's apt. Some things just come back to you like a thunderbolt and throw u off gear, change what you think of who you are.

Well, yeah, that's the upside of memories. a lot of times it akes you feel thankful for what life has given you, and sometimes sorrowful for what it has taken away. But each time, the past reappears just to help put your present in perspective.
