It was a mistake <br />Cannot take anything back <br />Let it be gone <br />Like a wind blown veil <br /> <br />My colourful veil <br />Now must be stuck <br />In some thorny desert bush <br />My veil, my long time entity <br />Now torn and crushed <br />But that veil was old <br /> <br />It's time to replace <br />My garb with grace <br />New seasons, new reasons <br />An attempt to retrace <br />My steps to where <br />I was once a carefree lass <br /> <br />Rebuilding a future <br />With new bricks <br />Sturdier sticks <br />Wholesome <br />Not lonesome <br />Just my own <br />Little cottage <br />A true home<br /><br />Nalini Jyotsana Chaturvedi<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/new-home-9/
