Who am I ?

Who am I ?

An introvert & shy gal

Or a bubbly one giving high fives


Am I the unique one?

As I wanted to be

Or one who connects to all by empathy


I search myself

Amid all the labels put on me

It becomes so tough to see


Some tags I accept n enjoy

Knowing well am not exactly that

Others I carry for I don't bother to change others opinion of me


Few labels are very dear

Only rarely do I show these qualities

People who spot them are rarity


Some I embrace and wish to improve on

Others feel so heavy, let them be bygone

Among this myriad labels I feel so worn

What a girl wants?

I don't wish to be a trophy of your home, I am a slice of this universe. I am a wildflower, I am free to wield power. With choices of my own, Don't hold me back by the stereotypes. As I don't wish to go along, the usual flows or traditional ways. Like a recurring tide that moves all along still at the shore, it stays. Let me be a young river make meanders and flow, Let me bask in the sun and glow. Don't make me fear the bruise and burns I may get, For without taking a plunge far more I will regret.

Weird Modern Women

They are called modern in every era For they dare to be different Push the social boundaries Ask explanation for traditions That paint them weak, Keep them away from power, Burden them with responsibility, Curb their right to choose  and push them to just follow- the mores and customs & practices most of which they despise. 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.

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.
