MY HARDEST STRUGGLE
Once, it crossed by threshold.
This time I tried not to withhold.
Now I have took off my blindfold
And have learned to unfold.
I have finally learned to let go.

Read MoreOf all the struggles
I have faced in my life
The hardest one
Was to let go of some one.
I felt difficult to hate
People who never bothered to irritate.
I kept loving them
Inspite of fault being theirs.
I just want to keep the bond.
So I kept forgiving them beyond.
Everytime someone
Broke my trust
I tried not to combust
And did adjust.
Everytime someone
Broke my heart
I tried not to part
And did restart.
Once, it crossed by threshold.
This time I tried not to withhold.
Now I have took off my blindfold
And have learned to unfold.
People who desire to stay, stay.
People who desire to leave, leave.
If they stay, treasure them.
If they leave, let go of them.
I have finally learned
To let go of people.

I feel the blue sky
Beautiful outside
And mysterious inside
Gesture eternity.
I feel the white clouds
Clear space for the
Sun to rise and gesture support.
I feel the sun
Rising in the sky
And gesture hope.
I feel the rays of the sun
Penetrate into my soul
And gesture warmth.
I feel the fresh air
Trying to refresh my mood
And gesture positivity.
I feel as if the universe is talking with me.

I was seeking for
My querencia in others.
I hoped it would be
My safest place.
It would comfort me.
Little did I know
That comfort will
Weaken me.
During the bull fight
The animal returns
Often to his querencia.
The more he returns
He becomes predictable
And he dies.
So I decided to be
My own querencia.
In the process of
Seeking querencia
From the universe
I found it within.
Everyone deserves to be
Their own querencia.

First day of college
Hoping for a new change
I stepped out of my car.
It was time to step out of my boundaries too.
Once my dad waved hands,
Many questions kept popping in my mind.
It wasn't an easy transformation.
Not from school to college,
But from village to city.
Though I pretended to be bold outside
I was afraid inside.
Afraid of being judged.
It wasn't new to me.
I got used to it.
But still I believed
I would meet people who accept me as myself.
I believed in me.
I believed in life.
As I stepped into my class
Anxiety too stepped in accompanying me.
I was a simple girl.
No makeup.
No style.
Curly hair plaited towards my front
And positivity in my heart.
As I looked around
Behind the surveying eyes greeted some warm smiles.
I knew it was them.
The last bench was where my heart belonged.
People matching my wavelength do exist.
If it was not for that belief
I had in life,
I wouldn't have faced
Many biggest decisions in my life.

@mirakee @writersnetwork @readwriteuniteI BELIEVE
I believe people
matching my wavelength
Do exist.
I believed in life.
Thanks to that belief,
I am here now.

Inside me
I have a
Million of words
Left UNspoken
Inside me
I hold
Hundreds of emotions
Left UNexpressed
Inside me
I try to
Bury alive
Plenty of feelings
Left UNshared
Inside me
Echoes a
Number of questions
Left UNanswered
And all this UN
Keeps haUNting
Me deep inside
I want to
Escape this UN
Maybe if I do
My words
Maybe spoken
My emotions
Maybe expressed
My feelings
Maybe shared
My questions
May be answered
But also
In this process
The word haUNting
May become hating
And I don't
Want to be hated.

@mirakee @writersnetwork @readwriteuniteWAR WITHIN AN INTROVERT
I did not want any
Conflict with the world.
Little did I know
I ll be fighting
A war within myself.
With me on both ends
I wonder who will
Win this battle.

@mirakee @writersnetwork @readwriteuniteODD BOX
They were an odd combination.
He was a chatter box.
He shared everything with her.
She was a secret box.
She confined everything within her.
Yet they managed to move on.
Opposite poles attracted each other.

STANDARDS
Standards are not what we possess.
They are not based on our
Money or power.
Our deeds decide our standards.

HAPPINESS
Happiness is
Those long walks under the stars.
Getting rewarded for your efforts.
The last scoop of ice cream.
Your favourite chocolate.
The aroma of mud during rain.
Small things make us happy.

EXPECTATIONS
Expectations to human are like
air in a balloon.
Essential, but too much of it is
good for nothing.

Make war cease
Allegations and threats,
Restrictions and cyber nets,
Are common these days,
Every news article says.
Leaders fight over land,
While people brawl for bread,
Bullets are new toys,
War destroying innocence of young boys.
Buildings collapse like cards,
Bombs go off with casual disregard,
Blameless people bleeding to death,
Horrendous agendas stealing their last breath.
Divided by borders,
United by wonders,
Wonders that are words,
Flowing through pens better than thousand swords.
Let's make paper a battlefield,
Join hands together and ink be our shield,
Let's write for peace,
And make war cease

Life is no fairytale
Here Cinderella won't meet prince charming
She is her own prince
No fairy godmother can change her fate
Except her own will power!

Freedom?
freedom to me is living my emotions
freedom to me is smile and making people around me smile
freedom to me is life in itself
freedom to me is flying high even though you are caged
freedom to me is breath and being oxygen of your loved ones
freedom to me is happiness of the soul
freedom to me is life within
blooming in every nerve
freedom to me is peace of the mind
freedom to me is will of the heart to beat in any way it wants
freedom to me is expression of love in the smallest ways
freedom to me is spreading love like never ending ocean
freedom to me is acceptance of flaws of every flawless soul
freedom to me is being myself
these all means freedom to me

Why did you love me this deep?
where no one else's Love ever could seep
why were your Love this augmented?
that my heart and soul will always be lamented
Why were you this homecoming?
where in my eyes every soul felt
shortcoming
when I cried the Oceans
you aligned the waves of comfort
to my emotions
when in fear my soul shivered
you opened the gates of bravery
for me to livered
Why did my hollowness you complete?
that no other person can ever feat
so tell me
Why did you love me this deep?
where no one else's Love ever could seep

#writingcontest #creativearenaDefine happiness in your own words.
Happiness is a simple word with a wide definition. In this monotonous life we all seek happiness, whether it is in the form of a smile on the face of dear ones or sitting on a bench in the autumn with cold breeze playing with the hair, or simply eating delicious food.
What is happiness for you? -

#writingcontest #creativearenaWrite a two line quote about Expectations.
Expectations were like fine pottery. The harder you held them, the more likely they were to crack.
Brandon Sanderson
Is merely hoping for something to happen enough? Will that make it magically happen ? Or are expectations just stories in our heads? -

#writingcontest #creativearenaWrite a Rhyme poem.
Final Moments' Thoughts
When the Reaper comes calling at your door
As you're struggling with chest pains on the floor
And the angst of helplessness strikes your core
That's when you realize you could have loved more
- Diane Locksley |
You can write about anything – just have a rhyme in your poem.
A rhyme is a repetition of similar sounding words, occurring at the end of lines in
poems. -
