Me in Three
What I value most in my life is the bliss of being born
into a happy family with caring mom and dad.
It set the foundation for me to grow wholesome,
with basic values and a high moral code.
I am a happy wife and mother, the queen of my home,
a teacher from hilt to heel and I proudly wear that title.
Endowed with commitment, I try to do things as best as I can,
and I believe, staying in and out beautiful is vital.
As I can’t hide my sensitivity, people take me for a weakling
Sometimes, I can’t put enough, as fear of losing
takes a defeatist hold over me to the point of dejection,
and between action and inaction, I keep oscillating.
It gets in my way of success that never can I be a champion.
As a poet, sometimes I feel my pen runs out of ink.
It frustrates me that often I contemplate on quitting the scene.
Though not diffident, at times, into self- doubt I sink.
With all blemishes, I feel, I am yet to see the best in life.
Though I trip and fall, hope to stand up the next moment.
I keep bettering myself that I am a work in progress.
Before my life ends, I am hopeful of atonement.
As my days are waning, what I pray is to have a peaceful end,
with a feeling of contentment that I have left the world
as a blessing, brightening myself and many lives around,
leaving sweet memories behind that my dear ones love to hold.
