These walls are closing in
crushing,
breaking,
crumbling
my dreams into small debris and shards
piercing my soul
As you step on them
and crush them into million pieces
never to be salvaged again
My squelched heart,
suffocated dreams,
are now
dragged along with yours
giving comfort to
your broken soles
I now understand
I was fervently trying to figure out
trying to make sense of it
on all the wretched nights and day
those powdered
dreams of mine
have a purpose
as they roll under your feet
cushions and paves your way.

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.
