I Will Rise

I will rise! The dark clouds cover the entire sky, I see illuminating sun-rays in the horizon, It's calm, it's peaceful, it's reassuring, I will rise! I will rise above the scorched grasses, I will rise above the bare branches, I will rise above the brown barks, I will rise! I led a perfect woman's life, A woman's life with no blemishes, sheltered, protected, and behind the curtains, making all the sacrifices so others can thrive. It's my chance to rise, And I will not let it go, I will not give up. I will follow the sun, I will follow the moon, Every leaf, every blade around me, will inspire me to rise above the trivialities, I will come back renewed every time I am crushed, to prove my life is precious, I was born with a purpose!

With each deeper understanding of the Self, we ascend to higher beauty and insight.. with each awareness gained, a strength within is built and developed.. with every journey we embark on, weathering life unpredictability, tasting the sweet and the sour, a wealth is attained.. a value is felt.. dear Malabika, you have rendered your inner thoughts and beauty in sincere poetic words.. my pleasure to read what you ink of value.. My deepest regards and blessings.
