I met someone and I was lost
World bellowed, hushed and murmured its wrong
I listened but I thought
If this is wrong I don't want to be right
Cliche but that someone was my night, my day
My inner fightThe demons roared soon, the society, the knowledge laden men and women
So did those whom I have always considered my guiding light, my pillarsI was lost caught in a spiralling hole, I wailed for someone to understand to listen
they just said they warned, they said they taught me better,I was getting lost, I was feeling sad, alone, unsupported, unloved
I plead out my heart swarming in tetters;
Judgments wearing me thin
Won't you listen pls, hear me once within,
Once and for all
This time Listen hard, I never want to be found if this is what lost meant I cried,Fight; my inner pride said
And Fight I did beside my soulmate
Fight we did, fight we continued until ..We couldn't anymore
I watched as my castle in air crumbled, my dreams scattered
No, ..no heavens thundered or seas parted or lightning struck directed at the misjudged misogynistic blames we faced, none falteredAs we shouted angst to our fated destiny and said our goodbyes,
no body had anything nice to say
It was relief and sigh of contentment from our closed ones, there was only smirks from the society around, a look saying we told you so you naive weirdos..And again my pride roared.
I caught the hand in mine, the hand which came for the last handshake
The hug which was supposed to be the end lost warmthI cocooned them all inside I treasured I stole and next I knew I sailed my body and soul
Now in this stormy night we anchor our boat
The roaring thunder and sea mocking usOr is it the curse of the so called God against the natural?
Or is this someone's wish to make us understand
With pride comes love, with love comes swells of surfs, tidal waves of righteousness and comes the immersion, darkness fear but with it all comes foremost the beginning alight,
We await this night, the storm,the waves, the dark, this upheaval ride
Together again we wait hand clasped with pride.. 🌈
