There will be days where you do not
feel your best self,
or are not able to
recognize the beauty you hold.
Those experiences are allowed,
as long as at the end of the day,
you are able to accept that
you are as beautiful as the moon;
the moon that possesses beauty
we all awe at.
But just as we do,
the moon sometimes hides itself
behind a mask of clouds
when it's not ready for us to see.
A/N: hope you are having a day as beautiful as you are :)
FYI: "namatu nilāl" (the title of the poem)
translates to "our moon" in Tamil.
