Eve's Diary
I am a girl and today I take a pause
a deep long pause!
I may be a mother, wife or say a daughter
If I exist in future for all you bother!
Says Mother– I gave you birth!
I understand if you don’t realize its worth
“I love you my child”, a lot in fact
can I just ask for a little respect?
Says Sister– I grew up with you!
we always shared the toys that were new
you were offered luxuries on a platter
restrictions on me, My dreams were to shatter
Says Wife – I left my house to live with you!
to teach you the meaning of family & love
you claim me, that’s all fine
being remotely controlled was no dream of mine
Says Daughter– I gave you joy of beauty!
Imposing on you inhibition & duty
I have a dream so let me live now
your ‘trader’ will take me someday anyhow
To say now I have nothing to say
I am not safe wherever I stay
cycle of life revolves around me
the paddle you whirl as good as for free
Some promise me ‘Moon-ingful’ emotions
those who fail try forcible actions
I die then live, then live to die!
minutes of pleasure, a lifetime to cry!
I have a warning, as I am not scared now:
you like ‘Me’, then I am the best!
you like ‘Mine’, go take some rest!
If I can create, I can erase
The bird now soars for an infinite chase
