Initiative
Being with my- self
talking with-in more
am I shutting up?
withdrawing inside?
Not interested in talks
nothing excites me!
each day brings greyness
more questions with it..
By living with dears, trying
to do what they expect,
sad,never to satisfaction
but can I blame them?
Yes, I want them happy
give what they wish
for that, I must be myself
not shadow, but happy self.
Happiness it seems
at my shoulder length
but why can't I jump,
and catch, just wonder?.
To achieve something special
initiative, the first step,
why I don't assimilate
courage for that leap?

I know this feeling and it can be very hard to initiate that first step. A thoughtful and thought provoking poem as always Rashmi.
bless you,
carry faith.
cheers.
Grab the happiness which stands just beyond human reach
and you grab the summary of all that life is yet to teach.
Lovely poem !
I very know well know this one and I'm glad I made that leap. Wonderful write. Blessings to you :)
A thought-provoking piece. Beautifully penned.
Keep courage.
Sometimes you have to place yourself before others...lest love becomes a chore....emotional and thoughtful piece most can relate too.
to do what you love , be who you are and grab happiness where you find it - all great messages.
Thank you Rashmi for dropping by and for your encouraging comments. I read your poem and I totally agree with you. I also go through this phase of lack of initiative and wanting to be happy. Wishing you find your initiative and happiness soon. Your poem has handled the feeling written so well.Radhika
Sometimes you've just go to dive in head first and go for it. Loved the poem.
