Self Confidence

I’m sitting here

Wondering

Amazed at all

Given and taken

All

Blessings and curses

And I continue sitting.

I'm sitting

Amused

On how dumbstruck I've become

Is this me?

It can't be

Acuity comes in

And I become-

Assured

It’s me

It is truly me.

So I wake up

From the seat

Better!

Relieved with myself.

Relieved with who I’ve become.

Relieved with who I’m going to be.

An assured self

Sprung

I’m sprung

Doing things I never do,

That I am not used to

Thinking that I’m not deserved

Being real with myself

Finding myself

And you're there appreciating it all.

I have that feeling

The feeling you get

When you gain infinite life in a game.

Sprung

Becoming a new me

They all notice the glow

I don’t care

Radiance is my second name from today henceforth

My aura filled with blossoming flowers

Even if I’m caught in a bait trap

Captured by love

Sprung

Blind but free

Handling everything even the technical stuff

A ride to Venus and back

Love struck

Vowed to be yours till the end

But since I can’t control time

I make moments out of the minutes I have.

Life As I Call It

Tolerance

That’s what they all say…

Persistence

That’s what you need

But not to the irritating bit…

Life

Full of prudence and prejudice

That’s what it is

Life one needs

But not to the begging bit...

Insight

That’s what Solomon said

Wisdom and knowledge

That’s what you need

But not to the corrupt bit

So if these are

The spines to all

To the give and take

I pray lord,

Give me all I need

Understanding..

But not to the tolerating bit…
