Look With In

This one is for all the ladies who give up their priorities and career for their family. For the ladies who dedicate their lives in looking after husband’s parents, her children and indeed her beloved husband. This one is for the ladies who lag behind whilst their spouses remain updated for being on professional ground. This one is for the ladies who avoids argument and feud to maintain happiness and ambience of her home. This one is for the ladies, whose birthday, every member of the house forgets but with all her love, she makes their birthday a special occasion. This one is for the ladies, who do not complain about their illness and are available to serve when ever needed. This one is for the ladies who are asked to “look within,” when her children grow, when her husband changes his priorities, when her duties as a daughter in law are almost done! Not only through my words but with all the respect and understanding, I shall be there for you forever. To me it seems, I have deleted my own life. Yet, I have no acknowledgements, no respite! All these years through the spin, Now, when I was expecting a win, You have asked me to look within! From dusk, till dawn…. I cried for being used as a pawn. Disgrace and wounds that I have never shown, Have probably allowed you to take the lead on! I thank you for asking me to look with in! I feel strong and I know I have been a linchpin. No, I am not sinking! Despite your blames and meaningless inklings. Proudly, I stand glinting! I am loving and a caring personality. Empathised all through, despite living through brutality! How would you, parents and kids deny my hospitality! I am so done with the sick banality. I am a scholar, intelligent and creative! To keep up your vanity and superiority happily submitted to your ego trip! Quite elucidative that I should not have been so accommodative! I have been there, through their teens and routines. Yes, your kids are luminous, brilliant and pristine! I am happy that I looked within! Sponsor: Brian Strand Contest Name: STRAND COMPLETELY NEW(4)any theme any form Date: 4th July; 2020
