Dear 2018

Hey! 2018,

When I turn back and look,

I see myself standing at your start –

worried, confused and dejected.

You held my hand and walked with me

I was learning…

To forgive those who hurt me, for myself

To hold the few who loved me, safe in my heart

To treasure the goodness that I found, amidst chaos

To correct my mistakes, for the rest of the journey

Thanks for your company

Good bye 2018…

Happy New Year 🙂

Reflections

I was happy when your eyes sparkled
I was fearful when you looked scared
I was confident when you looked courageous
I was romantic when your eyes were filled with love
I was angry when you felt humiliated
I was proud when you beamed with pride
I was crying when you broke down

I reflect you,
I am the MIRROR.

–Priya Pramod

Firefly

You are born to spread light.
The light that comes from your deep soul.
Someone might keep you in the palm,
close it and squeeze you tight,
thinking ,your light will vanish
and your world will be dark.
How foolish they are to think so?
For the light is your spirit
that is from within.
No one can stop it ,not even you.
Be yourself,
The light is your own
Come, glow and dare the darkness.

Introvert

I like to listen than to speak;
I like my solitude than gossips;
I like to be under my blanket 
		  than in crowd;
I like the rains than a party;
I like to sing and dance but to myself;
I might be silent, but can see 
		  through your facade;
I might be walking alone ,but confident;
I am cold outside, but warm at heart;
I am not afraid;I am different;
I am an introvert
