CELEBRATE YOURSELF

I have a child in me
who fears isolation.
I have a villain in me
who is a prejudiced idiot.
I have a lass in me
who wishes to look beautiful  always .
I have a genius in me
who yearns to achieve .
I have a dreamer in me
who wishes to unleash reality.
I have a joker in me
who adds humour to every cell .
I have a fool in me
who complicates simple things.
I have a saint in me
who controls the rest of them.
I have a god in me ,
who loves to touch lives .
All of them share the same space
presenting themselves in a myriad of forms.
Yet,I am no perfectionist,
I commit mistakes.
But, I am myself
and enjoy being that way.
You too are a multi- coloured soul,
Celebrate your uniqueness,
Celebrate yourself!

Come Back

Credit: Sheela Pillai You tell me you have to go. After travelling all the way to steal the ecstasy from my eyes, you tell me you have to go. "Why?" I ask. Will some more time hurt? I wish I could freeze the moment when sliced the wind into pieces of tranquility, I wish you never left. What is it so enchanting that's drawing you back? Tell me, I won't be hurt, for I am not telling you that I am enchanting enough for you to stay, I am but a wanderer, too enchanted by the legacies of all the racing clouds and the bleeding sun, but again, do I have to be enchanting for you to stay? "Tell me" I ask again Tell me what is that you go back in search of, the very second you meet me. You tell me you are lost as well, in between all the slithering memories. You tell me you have to go back trudging along those limned locks of life, You tell me you have to go back to make sure that the five-year-old understands that going back sometimes means going home and somet...

Those eyebrows that lay on my forehead can question the unanswerable. Look at me a little carefully, and you’ll find  a gentle smile behind those lips of mine that are tightly sealed in fury. Those bangles in my hand    jingle very often to tell you that my gestures speak as much as my eyes . I am powerful, poignant, intense and passionate. You can call me shakti, You can call me kali, You can call me panchali, or name a million more gods and  goddesses, and you'...
