One day I sat back
In a room on a warm pack
Held up the canvas to make an art piece
Took out my colours not just a black n white feast
This time I knew it's gonna be different
As.... I was a resident of my persona , not just a mere immigrant
This time I knew it will last
No matter the ups and downs I know they'll past
With a newfound joy and unraveling desire
I started inking as if my pen was on fire
But....all I could draw was a face of my own
A sleek smile with gleaming eyes unbeknown
Serene eyes and a calm face
Depicting the state of my inner pace
As soon as I finished
I held it up high....astonished
The canvas wasn't wet
My hands weren't trembling
I'd grown up in a unique design
And now I knew my mind was really mine

PoetryWounds heal but scars remain , Time passes fast , what goes slow is pain. Sailing in sea alone in the boat , Sound to the agony , in the words coat Dig in.... And you won't regret !
