No Regrets


Wish I asked lesser questions,

Would have made more friends,

But knowledge turned out to be a good friend


Wish I rebelled a little less,

Would have been liked by more,

But maybe wouldn't have liked myself much


Wish I dressed up more often,

More compliments my way would have been nice,

But then I found beauty all around me


Wish I had taken those advices seriously,

My life would look cleaner with less mistakes,

However, I doubt I would have learnt enough 


Wish I faked and been chirpier and funnier person,

Easily could have broken popularity charts,

Yes, but that would have lasted only in social media world 


Wish I obeyed and stuck to ways of the world,

People would have judged me a little less,

Hmm..nopes fun is to walk the talk


Wish I was more focused and ambitious,

Success, fame and wealth would have been a charm,

But how much charm should I chase in this one little life ? 


Wish I climbed those steps...Wish this and that,

Then life would have been a bed of roses,

Alas, I would have failed to recognize the real me


Now I wish people leave those regrets aside,

Move ahead and accept the reflection inside
