Unsung Melodies

Relinquishment

The cool breeze brushed against my skin,
My hair were floating like the calm sea waves.
Tranquil waves after the roaring sea storm.
My restless breathing broke the silences of
Heighted mountains and deep valleys.
I breathed hard and shrieked "I won".
I was at the peak of that heighted mountain.
I couldn't believe i achieved what i wanted.
I have waited for this moment my entire life,
But why am i feeling so strange, so alienated?
I struggled for this hard, i get what i wanted.
I should be happy but oh my heart aches,
I had cut all the strings attached to it;
That pink string which affixed me with my sister,
That blue one i had for my best friend,
Those yellow ones for my loving Dad,
That red one devoted to my Mom!
Those strings are now swinging aimlessly,
Weighing my heart down, causing anguish.
I got what i struggled for, but i lost which
Meant me everything, but isnt it rightly said
"In order to gain something,
You've to lose something".
