There are days when my hopes touch the zenith And dreams are on horizon Picking up my messy self, Trying to be beautiful and beyond But every attempt is met with a failure Just stuck as a lure to life’s fishing adventures Figuring out stuff by my own, preparing for the worst Heart break, pain and loss are mostly what I got. At times I am pathetic, trying to put all to an end No more can I take the ignominy of being neglected Its then when I hear the prayers of my mother All is good dear, there is nothing to bother. The trouble she had been through, all because of me The least I could do was to set myself free How my mom always said that things shall fall into place If not today, at least in the coming days I wonder if what she said was true Or it was to comfort me when I had no clue But, it has strengthen me in every way it can Her daughter is a fighter; her efforts won’t go in-vain Maybe it was to help me when my hopes touch the zenith And again my dreams are on horizon I should have the audacity to pick my messy self, And be beautiful and beyond No more a lure in life’s fishing hook My journey of frail to fabulous, perhaps written in a book When I die, things will not be squandered They shall say She came, she saw and she conquered
