As I ponder over my trait
I find myself either dull or bright
The best swings one can witness is my mood
At times I am physically present but mentally in different world
As growing up I was a silent child
After few years I found myself talkative
However easily hurt and overly sensitive
I am considered as a gentle giant
Who appears huge but has soft trait
I wear mask of confident tone
Within me I am afraid and alone
At times I tend validation than believing in my ability
People have misused my vulnerability
The most energy draining task is falling in loop belt
Building habit is easy but maintaining it is difficult
The moment bad habit in me triggers to core
I need to learn the consequence and divert my mind more
The most underrated quality is self talk
And may be some meditation or going for a walk
I appear very jovial and carefree ,Pious
I wonder if it's actually me or I am just pretentious
At times I am tagged to be selfish and mean
Because I am seldom in touch with anyone keen
But it's just because I have my own business to mind
Also I am in journey to understand myself and find
I need to know why do I cry without reason
Why do I have PhD in taking tension ?
Why letting go isn't easy ?
Mind diversion is only through being busy
I realise I have so much scope of improvement with each introspection
Although I try my best but I am a model of imperfection
My parents are no more and I miss them very much
Life isn't fair and bound to face unfortunate situation such
But what matters is how I lead my life
To make them proud and walk another mile
When life gives lemon , I should learn to make lemonade
Only then I will be relevant and never fade
The mask I wear of a beautiful smile on face
Is something I need to tattoo permanently with each phase
I am Fortunate and grateful to have blessings I met
All I need to work on is to have a positive mindset
Poetry writing style of mine is not the conventional one that's taught
But Writing in flow helps me pull off my mask and have clarity of thought!
