(poem written by Soumya, March, 2024)
Surviving and alive
Kicking to strive
Climbing to achieve the heights
Wanting to align to the world outside
Are we obligated to oblige
Or do we dare to disappoint the world outside
To survive and stay alive
Surviving and alive
Walking on the thin line
Trembling and falling each time
Hurting thy own self with the rules set by the world outside which none is obligated to oblige
Surviving and alive
Dancing all night or
are we waiting for the internal chaos to subside
Depleting the reserves for fulfilling the obligation which are not even mine
Surviving and alive
By masking the feeling inside
Having that smile while hurting inside
Feeling obligated to oblige
Surviving and alive
Only when one draws a line.
