When I look back...

When I look back, the thoughts overwhelm me,
When I look back, you contemplate and see;

The emotions and times that have tested you,
all the victories and losses have perfected you;

The friends and family you need all the time,
all the love and care that came at the prime;

The temper and ego that hurt someone,
all the guilt and realisation that came in return,

When I look back, the thoughts overwhelm me,
When I look back, you contemplate and see;

The joy and happiness that come your way ,
all the good times and memories that make doubts allay;

The blessings and good luck that took me higher,
all the good deeds and respect that made me wiser;

The plans, the journey that were complete with finesse,
all the aspirations and dreams that tasted success;

The reflections, the learnings that I failed to see,
The year that reflected with what I could be;

When I look back, at the things that are gained,
The year we say had a perfect end;

When I look back, I see the journey that I pursue,
I realise the things to keenly look forward too.
