Fear of Normalcy





Married, two kids, a wonderful husband
A beautiful life, Picture perfect
The normal bind
With a very positive effect

But I dare not be that way
I wish life was not that way
I wish life to not be normal
I see it as a sign of mediocrity

Live I will,
My life my way
Not the ever so treaded path
But make one anyway

Fear I have not
Of what I wish to do
Fear I do not
Of what will come out too

Fear I do not
To take the path alone
Fear I do though
Of being a Normal person

Today, I was a little upset about something from last night and was in question of how can I change it. The awareness I received was "What can I be grateful for here?" and I knew right away!

While I was just jumping with joy at that, the local coconut vendor decides to give us a discounted price on the tender coconuts; just for us! On our way back home from there, I was elated and literally shouting "Thank you Universe!!!!!" and at the n...

All that I don't want to

As I struggle with self love As I struggle to love the one I look in the mirror As I struggle to look at a fast changing face, a quickly ageing body As I struggle to come to terms with beauty as we see it As I struggle to come to terms with the abyss I seem to be getting pushed into Time n again, rising like the Phoenix I long back chose to be I write to express I write to cry it out I write to address My deepest pains n vent it out I write in creative expression Of all that I can’t express... ...And all that I don’t want to
