Choosing to be the real me


Imprisoned is what I felt,
Chained and bonded within limits.
Limits that I didn't wish for,
But they said it's norms I got to follow.

I felt restless and stifled,
Never being let to express my thoughts.
I questioned what they said was the only right,
But they chose to brand me wrong.

I believed in being nonconformist,
Not to be to indifferent but to be true.
I began flaunting the unabashed me,
I knew they secretly liked that about me.

I continued to be called the deviant and digressive,
A misfit that they secretly always wanted to be.
They always spoke of me in hushed tone,
I knew they were just jealous for they could never be me.

Awakening Of the Inner Self!

It was yet another  Friday  or billions of earthlings. May be it was a mundane day ahead for some and exciting for others. An exciting day ahead for the ones who were certain of the joy to be unwrapped the next day, the weekend. Well, in my case it was the former. Blame it on being one amongst the many who work on Saturdays.

The Untitled Lady And The Dreamer In Me!

Vivid Emotions Of Ecstasy In Darkness!
