She tries to gell with them
Get carried away in the crowd
Wants to be part of them
wants to be in unison with their sound
She tries desperately to dress
like them
sound like them
and feel like them
her identity shreds into pieces
her soul ripped apart
She has no voice left of her own
Her heart is screaming aloud
Tears are rolling down silently
she wonders how much more pain
she has to endure
How much more she has to put her through
trying to fit the cookie cutter
trying to be with "The popular"

I’m a mother of a smart and energetic seven-year-old. I started expressing myself creatively since the last two years. Since then I have been continuously inspired by events in my life and around me which has helped me in penning my thoughts.
I’m an avid reader, loves to sing, an ardent lover of poetry and sometimes can scribble few lines too. Loves to dance in the rain, have an undying love for nature, can watch the beautiful sunset for hours. Love to kiss and hug my loved ones.
I have worked in the IT field for almost a decade as a manager, worked crazy hours and traveled around the world. In that busy schedule, I never got the time to creatively express my thoughts. Now every time I finish a poem, free verse anything it fills me with so much happiness and excitement and a feeling to have created something of my own. I’m planning to post at least one creation of mine weekly.
Lastly, a million thanks to all who visit, like or follow my tiny bits of creation.
Every time you do that, I get to know one more beautiful person in my life and get the chance to see their creation too.
