Each passing day is making me older as well as bolder,
But I fear, thinking I’m wrong.
Still, for the sake of my heart and soul,
I need to be strong.
I tried fitting in,
Less did I know that I was making sin
I was sad and hurt,
As,I felt like a piece of dirt.
I’m on my own way
This was something, I could never say.
It now sound’s so lame,
That I used to tame.
I felt so lonely and lost,
That I had decided to change, no matter what it cost.
I finally knew, I need to be cured
Because I had a lot endured!
I was walking astray,
But myself I cannot betray.
Is not believing in yourself the worse?
I would say of-course!!!
I know that the road to a star,
Is rather too far.
But it’s the only path to my soul,
Which can again make me feel whole!
My Lord showed me the light,
To make me realize that I need to thrive,
And much more strive,
To learn and fight!
-Ava Tripathy.

Hi Avem, Did you decide not to post this? It seems a heartfelt thoughts. It is good to keep your own counsel sometimes and remove if it is too painful… But keep a copy for yourself for later development.

18, My Gosh, 42 Years Ago That Year
in 1978, i too Tried So Hard to Fit in Also
Feeling A Bit Like Something
Off of People’s Shoes
Just Couldn’t Be
Like the Others
Just Not me…
And Then
A Philosophy
Class And A Teacher
In Junior College Then
Who Helped Me Understand
That Reality Is What We Create We Need
Not Fit the Mold if We Are Brave Enough
To Mold
Our Souls
In Wings that
Wear No Set
Previous Clothes of Culture…
So Excited at the Prospect of Escaping
Creating My Own Life Yet What A Wait Then
Still Till Age 53 When Finally Wings Are All
Mine Free to Sprout and Fly Whatever Way
The Wind Take Me My Soul Inspiring Flight
Now For Over 7 Years Still Flying So Free…
SMiles Dear
Yet Before
Money to be
Made Wife to
Marry Home to Build
Child to Be Born And Only
Live 51 Days So many Years
of Becoming The Job Even Separated
From Any Real Connection to Humanity
It’s True That Was my Only Philosophy
Class In College i Wanted to Do More
Yet Money Always In the Way All the
Loans All The Things That
Had to Be Bought
As i Sold
my Soul As
Every Child of God Does
Until They Become Child With Wings Again…
Keep Flying my FRiEnD it makes me Happy
to See Someone Soar So Young Just to Be Who You Are…:)
