They said I couldn't do it, that I did not have it in me. Stripping me of my free-will, denying me any courtesy. Doubting my every advance, they thought that I was prodigal. Underestimating my will-power, they mistook me for a non-radical. Rebuffing my desire to excel, they laughed at my ambitious aspirations. Believing in my certain failure, they mocked at my pristine prominence. Opposing my every insightful debate, they belittled my confidence. Rejecting all my appeals for a better life, they tried-and-tested my tolerance. "Rising like a phoenix from the ashes," I yet out-lasted and out-wore every impediment. Contradicting this perfidious-treacherous world, I survived, I excelled, I am self-sufficient. No denial, no disapproval, no refutation can ever bring me down, Traversing all the high and lows, combating life's endeavors and conflicts, proudly I wear my crown!
When Disappointment Strikes
With tears in my eyes and an ache within my soul, The misery that I have refuses to let go, My "laughter" is dead, perished are my dreams, How do I survive? I nailed no means! My fantasies lay submerged, in the deep, dark sea, I am at my bottom-worst, "Let me be!" Saving me will only heave you to the Satan's abode, Let me depart, it's best for all that I go! I attempted, but all I could accomplish was a catastrophe, May be I am cursed or have some abnormality, Are there more like me, disappointed-dismayed? To Almighty I ask, "Why was I made?" It's time now, for me to say my goodbyes, Deliverance unquestionably is a far cry, With crippled ambitions and strained consciousness, My life is nothing bounteous than a dreadful mess!

My Mother
From brushing my hair, to grooming my self-respect, From gratifying my childhood follies, to humoring my adult deflects; From scolding me for when I messed up, to molding me into a fine human, From holding my hands forever, to apprising me of my acumen. From braving the worldly adversities, to composing a sense of self-belief within me, From withstanding all the life troubles, to teaching me to stand up and never flee. From enduring everything that a woman endures, to crafting me into a woman of substance, From loving us with your all your heart, to embracing our imperfections in abundance. You have always been an inspiration, a counselor.. Yes, my permanent affair, Your strength, your sense, your devotion, can no other being compare. Thank you Mama for believing in me when the world didn't bother, I am gratified, fulfilled, beholden, enlivened that you are my MOTHER! I love you Mama!
Maa
With bountiful love, She nurtures and nourishes. Our Mama Gaia!
Dead Silence
The night is lonely, overcast and gray, With a pin-drop silence, that no turbulence can slay. Estranged is my sleep, my consciousness in turmoil, My heart's erratically racing, the dismay boils. Did I hear someone call my name? Or did someone whisper, "let's play a game?" I hope it's not the psychotic serial killer that morning newspapers referred to, The one who wanders with a chainsaw, murdering women and boiling their guts to stew! I'm not certainly dreaming, the weirdness that I feel is real, The eerie air, the unearthly space - all seems so supernatural. Is there a dark shadow lurking behind the drapes? Or is it a ghoul who's bloodied atrocities I wont escape? "Tick, tock, tick" goes the monstrous antique clock, incessantly, There is a strange chill in the air, it all feels so deathly. I hear a distant motor buzzing, getting closer with every gasp, My fear was factual.. Sigh, this night is indubitably my last!
Touch
TOUCH Smother Canoodle An unbid fondle, A random sexist rub.. Somewhere expunged my dignity. “Every touch has a memory!”
Everybody Hurts
Desiring your consideration, I have cried a million tears. "Invisible" to your complacency, I have died a million deaths. Inconspicuous indulgence! Your nearsightedness annihilates me, I can no longer take this any more. I wonder how can you be so unseeing, and my love be so obscure?
Eau De Parfum
Rousing my insides, He uncorks carnal havoc. Ah, his savage whiff!
A Tasty Tongue Twister
Scrumptious treats tease me into temptation, Thrilling me, exaggerating expectations. I cannot but manipulate this ambrosian instigation, "To eat or not to eat" is a significant tribulation! Varied flavors, promiscuous zings, Thirstiness, titillating mid-night cravings. "Somebody restrain me, this infatuation I can resist no more.." In retrospect.. "Pass me that butyraceous casserole!"
