To My Ultimate Role Models

Credit : Akshatha R Kamath

Yes, I know,

The journey has its own ups and down…

But I could rather deny, coz, her dreams are through my eyes…

She sees me, as the rower of her boat,

As the writer of her note…

She wants me to achieve umpteen things, she couldn’t; and learn all kinds of things, she didn’t…

She has poured her life into me and ignited the interminable light within…

So, for my lovely Alladin, I wish to be a Djinn…

Not only to her, but also to the person, who is always by my side,

He is the best companion and an incredible guide…

He, never, expressed his love in words, rather he preferred actions…

He kept all is works and care unseen, unlike maa, who would always shower her care and love ❤

Probably he was left unrecognized…

He felt our pain but couldn’t cry,

He knew our needs so he would try…

Try and Try until his last breath, to make everyone contempt,

But probably he forgot, he too is a living being… 

He too needs rest; he too could rely on my shoulder when he is tired…

Hey Krishna, pls listen to my urges, coz they aren’t my wishes or wants, but they are my needs…

Moreover, they are my goals, that, I have to, I will and I must, flourish it…

I plead to u give me energy, to overcome all the obstacles, humiliation, failures, to not get distracted, to discontinue the path of struggle…

I hope that ur love and well wishes are always with me…
