Ansha Truter Poems

Do you know what happens when you cry so much
that deep heaving your chest does?

Well, I have not shed a tear
...

She is alot like you
She told you to go, and you never came back
The All-Wise knows why this happened
...

I don't really live in this world
I am only renting space
The places I have lived cannot be called home
...

Why are you so angry?
So withdrawn. So temperamental
Can I give you a hint?
...

The function of the heart is to love
What do you use for?
To fight?
Stop picking up dumbells with yours.
...

There is treachery everywhere.
As soon as you take your first steps
Ouch! There goes the knife right into my back.
No more loyalty these days.
...

I do realise that writing liberates me
Empowers me, feeling every feeling that usually hides from me.
Feelings I usually seek in lost crowds
It makes me independant of a confidant
...

We would live fearless- that goes without saying
We would have the time of our lives
We would get so hurt, yet end up being the greatest winners
Walking around with broadest of smiles
...

When you observe her closely
You see that she has written this book.
This book is self-entitled...fear!
...

Because I have felt it,
I promise never to settle for less.
Because I have seen it,
I will never shield my eyes from it.
