Being a woman is easy. Being a lady takes insane courage!
Being a woman is easy. Being a lady takes insane courage!
Courage to hold her own when she's broken into
a million pieces, too tired to even get up.
Courage to manage a smile when she sobs into
her pillow, nights after night.
Courage to look away from the unpleasantness
she's subjected to.
Courage to not react when it’s most difficult
to.
Courage to not shy away from saying what needs
to be.
Courage to be dignified when she has been
deceived.
Courage to hope for new beginnings when there's
despair all around.
Courage to have the grit of a tigress when
nothing’s going her way.
Oh, yes!
Being a woman is easy. Being a lady takes
insane courage!

He...
She consumed his senses for most of the years He had known
He speaks of worldly gains to get over his pain
Every now and then He sees her mane curving softly on his face
He longs to shield her
Sing her songs of his victories
Amidst a hundred men He feels her hand
On a cold morning far and wide He sees the arch of her back clear
his sight
On harsh days He makes a pillow of her chest
Every day He tries and struggles hard but cannot see her face
They say He took the wrong turn where memories fade….

Bit Of Me, Full Of You !
Bit of peace
bit of hope in the air
bit of hope in the air
I fill my heart with your memories
& bring you here.
Bit of nostalgia
bit of sorrow in the air
I fill my eyes with your dreams
& bring you here.
Bit of me
full of you in me
I fold my hands
& bring us near.
