‘The same song’: Poem by Samaira Mulchandani, Apeejay School, Panchsheel Park

It seems the walls are rising again.
It seems just a repetition of the time back then.
I am still singing that same song
Regretting all the mistakes, all the times I was wrong.
I can’t even say that this is new and strange
I guess some things never really change
Those voices, I still hear them, in my head
Those thoughts and fears, they still haunt me, when I go to bed
I feel so lost, even when I am found
I am free like a bird, yet why do I feel so bound?
I can’t even say that this is new and strange
I guess some things never really change
They say, ‘Don’t hold yourself back’.
I am sure, yet unsure, what if i’m not on the right track
No, I don’t want my strength to be broken apart
I just want to trust and listen to my heart.
I can’t even say that this is new and strange
I guess some things never really change
I am still singing that same song.
But somehow, now I feel more strong.
No more regrets, because the mistakes led me to today
And led me to find the way.
