55. ||RISE||

108 16 11
                                    

Someday
I will rise.

Rise like the beautiful sun
On a Sunday dawn
That so many nature enthusiasts
Yearn to gaze at 
I'll diffuse my effulgent and inviting rays
To all the humanity around.

I will rise
From this grief
Like a caterpillar tires its limbs
From constructing
A safe and warm cocoon for itself
Only to blossom and spread my vivid wings
And fly away.
I will rise.

Optimism does wonders, after all.

I will rise,
Be your eternal heartthrob again
Dress the way I did
Dance the way I did
Sing the way I did

Love you the way I still do.

I will
Make your jaw drop again
Like I did
Every
Single
Day,
Krishna.


But tonight
I just don't care
About my dishevelled hair
And lovelorn face.

I will rise someday, Krishna
But today
Just today
I need your arms.

Even Goddesses need homes.
