Mathematics of My Mind

My mind is an irrational number
I wonder.
Goes on an on
boundless and senseless
Full of variables it is
each waiting for a value
to get defined
in this incalculable mess
of my indeterminate mind

Or is it a discontinuous graph ?
with ups and downs
but suddenly,
gets stuck at one point
staring ahead
just a void
I know my destination
but where’s the path ?
No excuses, create one.

Don’t put limits
on this indeterminate mind of mine
O let my imagination
touch infinity!
But do tell me,
Will I ever know
the roots
of such a complex mind ?

Unnamed Battles

~Prerna @besondersite

Imperfect? Nah, I’m perfect!

When we learn to accept ourselves the way we are,
Half of our battles,
Yes! half of them,
have we already won…

~Prerna @besondersite

Embrace the change, take the chance…

I am perched upon a brittle branch
holding on to it, as long as I can
waiting for a brisk autumnal breeze
to pluck and carry me away,
away from my little abode…

And I’m afraid of this wave of change
Of what it will bring, to a delicate thing like me
Ambiguity surrounds me
as I twist and twirl
and make several turns,
cross endless boundaries
and swing to and fro
to finally rest on the ground…

And there I found
many more like me
lying there lifeless
wanting to explore
but waiting for a push…

But then, I was airlifted
the sun glowing through my translucence
not blinding me with its brightness
but adding to my undiscovered glimmer
I found myself at a height,
I doubted I could ever reach
that those who dare to fly
can only achieve…

Alas! the moment didn’t last long
as I glided off towards the world beneath,
twisting and twirling again
falling again…

But now I wasn’t afraid
Cause’ I have seen the ‘lift’
and I have seen the ‘glide’
And I have seen the spiritless
I dare to take a chance
I dare to be different…
