Best Poems Written by Shristi Narang

Found You

I found you first,
and I want to be the first.
I drown to pursue,
but afraid to let you go at the end.

You are undeniably strong,
the strongest I ever have.
You were, you are, and you always will be
with everyone — no matter what they've done yet,

Indeed, you hold a pain from long before,
that makes you feels
Standing alone in the storm.

Why you hide from yourself?
My dear, you weren’t —
or you never have been alone.

You have the power
to empower yourself.
You are the sun,
enlightening even the ocean's depth.

Why you holding on
to things from the past?
You weren’t alone,
you never have.

Encourage yourself,
oh my dear, hold on to that.
It’s hard to do —
I’m aware of that.
However…

I’ll be standing with you,
the way you always have.
I know the guilt
you deal inside at.

I found you first,
and I’m responsible for that.
I’ll keep looking on you,
and onto you —
hope you know that.

Oh my dear,
you weren’t,
or you never have been alone
to deal by yourself.
