Freedom From Locked Doors

I locked up myself, 

my dreams and aspirations.. 

behind the doors of... 

patriarchy and ... 

restrictions,

 

Evils of self-doubts

and inhibitions

confined me

to stay in my

comfort zone. 

So many duties and...

responsibilities... 

to be fulfilled, 

my own priorities

took a back seat

I wasn't connected yet... 

with my real self, 

pleasing others or... 

living upto others' expectations 

were certain obligations... 

in my small world. 

Until one day... 

I encountered. .. 

my inner self. . 

whom I was .. 

unaware of. 

With huge introspection and self-awarenesss... 

I discovered.. 

my own beliefs, 

values, purpose

and goals. 

Now prepared

to shun

all the evils

that tend to

diminish my 

energies. 

I have the strength

and zeal to deal

with waves of challenges. 

I have the power to ... 

overcome all barriers.. 

coming my way. 

I have the ability to... 

triumph over...

all the grave situations.
