Give me one peaceful day
for I can be thankful for my whole lifetime
when will my internal cries
end
and
what could end that
endless sorrow
the grief within my boxed up mind
eats me now and then

I see myself
disintegrating into pieces
before me
through my own eyes
which my selfish ego
will not believe

may be I live with two minds
the one that pushes me up
and the other that pulls me down
what a heart
am I provided with?
this should be one of the weakest heart
ticking in this earth

but
it is also the one
that provides me great strength
to believe in my abilities
and to put up a big show
with umpteen confidence
hoping for the best
in whatever I do
