‘Why do I go back to the same woods’: Poem by Aditi Arora, Apeejay School, Panchsheel Park

Why do I go back to the same woods 

Is this a piece in me?

Am I left alone in sorrow?

Was it an irony that I was changed?

Even if it’s a new year I got diverted from it

People make resolutions but I got back to the scratch

Maybe it’s not real 

Why I do the same things again if nothing is working out 

Don’t I deserve any better 

Even if there is something better 

Why I feel like this 

A feeling that can never be explained 

I go back to the same woods 

I go back to the same woods

The evolution was knowing 

The biggest glory to work out 

I call it the waves of the self.
