I fill my own cup today,
And realize just how satisfying it feels,
I put myself first and think about my needs,
Such a burden it is to never prioritise,
Such a burden it is to choose oneself last,
It is a novel experience, to choose me today,
Looking forward to what lays ahead,
I feel a sense of calm in this strangeness,
Like a river slowly flowing,
I hear the sound of water,
It lulls me to drift away,
Losing myself in the journey I’m about to take,
Making it about me, is not easy,
But I am learning to be free,
Cutting the strings that were once dear,
It’s okay to let go,
You are safe,
I remind myself against the sound of the soothing water,
You are safe,
You are free to fill your own cup
Replenish!

I don’t want to participate in this anguish,
I want to be left alone,
I let go of my weapons and surrender to a power far greater,
I let go of my ego and accept my defeat gracefully,
I let go of despair and I let in peace,
I let in god,
I let in love,
I let in forgiveness,
Surrendering will not diminish my worth,
Surrendering will act as a balm,
May you rejoice in your victory,
For this fight is not mine to lose,
For this fight has nothing to do with me

Dream a little dream tonight,
For dreams come true,
Dream a little dream tonight,
And sleep with hope in you,
Dream a little dream tonight,
And twinkle like the stars ,
Dream a little dream tonight,
Melt in the moonlit sky,
Dream a little dream tonight,
And believe,
Dream a little dream tonight,
You deserve the best of everything!

The swirl of the wind,
I am that!
The chirping of the birds,
I am that!
The rays of the sun,
I am that!
The raindrops in the sky,
I am that!
Fallen leaves from trees,
I am that!
Ticking clock,
I am that!
Every passing moment,
I am that!
I am here!
I am now!
I am this moment!

***Many people see
stars on the night sky.
But I see only a
graveyard whose candles
are still lit on the graves,
even though they are
long exstinguished by the angels***

"Walk a few miles,
Walk some more,
Step by step,
Craft a road,
Deepening your footsteps,
Make a way,
Don't give up,
You're almost there!
Reaching the top,
Inhale victory,
Conquering weakness,
Stand still!
Turning around,
Track your path,
This Is the beginning,
Of endless marks!"

"Go with the flow,
Life will go slow,
Teaching you more,
Till you start to sore,
Learning is good,
Mind's food,
Don't let go,
Till you fully grow!"

It has been a while since I ve inked,
Been a while since my heart gave in,
Been a while since i was inspired,
Been a while since i boxed in,
Life is fast,
So eventful,
Time speeds,
Exhausting one's soul,
Yet here I am,
After a sabbatical,
Taking a pause,
Calming life's run,
Crafting my poem,
After a while,
Oh how much a missed this!
I finally feel so alive!

I raise my voice,
I say it out loud,
I speak for myself,
But they close my mouth,
Beware they say,
Be safe,
from whom I ask,
"Men" they say,
I stare at them,
I cannot fathom,
This fear is ridiculous,
Demeaning my existence,
women claim power,
Displaying weakness,
Men are only but humans,
Outspoken and strong,
But so are you in everyway,
Then why women do you not talk?!

renewed land
drenched leaves
sky's canvas
painted dull
heavy clouds
earth glows
soothing fragrance
