Somewhere in the garden,
There's a statue of me and you,
It's made of Stainless steel and resistant to rain
And the birds may sit and crap on it,
Cars may splash some mud on it,
But with a good pressure wash that'll all go away,
It may not be gold or silver,
Not made of precious metals,
......
I thought that my voyage had come to its end
at the last limit of my power,
that the path before me was closed,
that possibilities were exhausted
and the time come to take shelter in a silent obscurity,
But I find that thy will knows no end in me.
And when old words die out on the tongue,
new melodies break forth from the heart;
and where the old tracks are lost,
new country is revealed with its wonders.
......
I lost hope; I broke down;
Who was there to save me then?
I looked awkward in that gown;
Yours was a wolves’ dire den.
So many years rolled away;
Still, your scary scorn
Blurs my world even today;
I need a new morn.
......
Do not give up
Though you feel down
Do not let go but stand your ground.
Hold on tight, maintain your grip
Claw at hope, with each fingertip.
Do not give up
Though you feel weak
Emotions will play hide-and-seek
The well of life may have a leak
......
Why the lazy mornings?
Why buried deep in bed?
Could blanket be your armour
Against the worlds missiles?
Do you not realise
The war is within you?
Will not getting up help
......
I lost hope; I broke down;
Who was there to save me then?
I looked awkward in that gown;
Yours was a wolves’ dire den.
So many years rolled away;
Still, your scary scorn
Blurs my world even today;

......
Dogs shall keep barking;
Still, never let them vex you;
It's your life, for sure.
I admit I'm not the best,
Was never the best, put to the test.
In my head, I strive to be the best,
Lack confidence, yet dress so blessed.
Insecurity's grip, a constant wrestle,
Fight those doubts, a relentless tussle.
A friend once preach, a truth so profound,
To be the best, your best self must be found.
......
Embrace your insecurities with grace,
Yet, don't let them dictate your pace.
They're shadows that may come and go,
But never allow them to diminish your glow.
It's fine not always to be on the peak,
Cool and collected, a demeanor unique.
Value the journey, not just the goal,
Secure your insecurities, make them your soul.
......
Do not give up
Though you feel down
Do not let go but stand your ground.
Hold on tight, maintain your grip
Claw at hope, with each fingertip.
Do not give up
Though you feel weak
Emotions will play hide-and-seek
The well of life may have a leak
