Courage....

Here, I am,

I am going to tell them, My family,

About him, my boyfriend, my love, I am going to tell them who I am, I am going to come out for the first time, There's no fear, no darkness, no regrets,

There's only a sense of courage inside me,

That I felt that day, From him, I learner to be vulnerable, open, and myself,

And then with him in my heart and mind, I told them all about myself. I remember, My parents weren't happy, They were still figuring out what to do,

If I say this was something,

I hadn't expected, then I will be cheating myself.

For weeks they didn't say anything,

and for years now.

But when I see now,

at this moment, after ages, Early evening night,

and full moon on the other side,

We both eating, "Bhelpuri", at the lakeside,

Sitting on a bench together,

I remember the courage, We both took in a relationship...
