I Am My Poem
I Am My Poem
Let me be a poem
The verses conveying
What I fail to speak
My inner self in my words
And in the gaps between them
Be the world that I seek.
With closed eyes folded hands
I wish Your blessings for relief
As you read of Almighty
Let it show my strong belief.
When you read of my loved ones
You would realize it's so forever
And the verses of distance that you read
Be my silent scream craving for together
As you read of soldiers
That would be my gratitude song
Of trust and strength
To the rare braveheart kind they belong.
As you read of my sleepless nights
Let it show the darkness of my fights
And as you read of the moon
Let it revel my strength through darkness
And hope of the daylight that would follow soo
n.
As you read of endless journeys
I let you see my wandering soul
And as you read of beautiful destinations
Let you see my will to reach the goal.
When you read of the birds in cage
Try seeing the greed of freedom in every gaze
And as I write of the birds flying high
Let it reveal my courage and will to touch the sky
When you read of celebrations
Let happiness of my mind be revealed
Let my sad verses too convey
The emotions that I keep safely sealed.
Let these feel decorated words
Help me convey emotions
Let my trueself be revealed poetically
In this new age world of emoticons.
Let me be a poem
And let my poem define me
And as my reader reads with his mind
Let him see all through me.
