I own no empire
nor am I a princess,
no kingdom gives me the title
no guard salutes I get
no piper blows trumpet for me
yet my day begins with
a christening ceremony
followed by coronation
makes my memory vibrant
when you say, Hey Princess!
I feel good.
When you wait at the window sill
just to get a glimpse of me
I rush through my chores
to share my day and more
strange colours spread on
my incomplete canvas of life.
I feel
good.
When you reverse my stubborn
‘No’ to ‘On’ a rainbow of joy
arches your face of triumph
compensating years of tears .
I feel good.
You see life as a dream
my life is a silent scream
but when you listen its music
and appreciate its logic .
I feel
good.
At times my taunts pierce,
your delicate heart bleeds,
but with your magnanimity
you smile it away and tease me
to change my taunts to love.
I feel good.
