Real is Beautiful

 Real is Beautiful,

And it keeps me happy

Even when I

have a few pimples,

some acne scars,

bushy eyebrows, 

and multiple sunspots.

I don't lose my confidence because of any of these.

I am at total peace.

As they just reflect my age, I accept them all with grace.

I am totally comfortable in my skin.

No need for a no-makeup look effort

and the use of numerous filters.

No anxiety about not being noticed,

or crazy desire for likes from strangers.

Why should I be hiding that ?

which is natural and real.

Why should I be fake?

Being well-groomed makes sense,

But covering up my reality,

Would it not be like cheating myself?

I instead choose to accept all that is mine,

and improve upon to rise and shine.

She is often caught and pulled back  by this social web  so intricately knit that guides her look her every move her  every choice because she fears being an outcast It is so skillfully made That even in her rebel too she tortures herself to fit a checklist of liked/ desirable women  From waxing her body to wear that shorts/skirt to compromising her career for family it all looks fair and part of peaceful living.

Kavita / Poem

  The journey of my poems Some of them gush out as an outburst of emotions Others cling in my head as a punch line Many are result of unconscious observation Some are based on my values and inclination But each of them is special As a conversation with myself Reflection on society and communication between like minded folks They reveal my concerns, my desires, my fears, my state of mind My encrypted secrets, my fantasy and obviously my love too
