Simply PonderA Poem by ASHRITH HARITH(A)Wakening call to all counterpartsI often ponder, Where I have lost it; Why I had to lose it That which completes me That which defines my existence Have I lost it for my parents’ sake? Or my dear pals’ sake? Or my own? I know who I am But why am I ; Shy of myself ? Why burgundy over simple blue? Why do I see pleasure in smoke Whence I know; to certainty The flavour of home food Why the so called fun? When I know it just is not? Not just either! A race to gain attraction, To be praised, Felt jealous of. This is my coat of maturity That conceals the rag of hypocrisy And it is not these sentences that are broken, Thoughts that are I ponder, Simply ponder Only ponder Why should I change? Why chose ME and MINE over appraisal? Socially being or being social: A tough choice to make I take all the credentials Feather them on my crown, That crown that belongs to me The self I am not. I ponder, Ponder, Simply ponder. © 2011 ASHRITH HARITHAuthor's Note
