"Them", by Divya Raj Copyright © 2000 They walk With heads held high. They do not hump, Unburdened as they are! Unfurrowed brows and placid faces. Poised and confident, Sure of all that’s life. Bright smiles and warm vibes they exchange so frequently Fill me with shame, untold. They have their goals set up, Firmly etched in their minds. They go ahead and far beyond With alarming alacrity! They know what, when To expect, how to go about. I admire their quiet wisdom And their ‘cool’ airs intrigue me! I envy the cozy blanket of niceties Which tightly wraps all insecurities. Petty squabbles and conflicts, inner Weigh down my worn-out soul. Some strength I need to derive And not let myself be Subjugated by life’s trials. I need to build a strong self Consciously, prudently. I yearn to be like them. I want to be one of ‘them’. TAKE ME Take me into the crevices, deep down under the earth. Disappearing and merging onto one of its crystals; raw and pure. Safely embedded and taken care. Take me into the waters, its waves, multiplying with vengeance. Soothing and calming, and submerging, still pacifying rigors, extinguishing all anguish in a pretence. Take me into the flames, its warm embrace, enchanting. Withering into dust and hollow, the mutilated self won't breathe a word. My mind will be at peace at last. Comment on this writing in our Forums!! | Back to Poems by Adults |
