Battle To Be Won! Poem by Geetha Jayakumar

Battle To Be Won!

Rating: 5.0


I am on way to fight a long battle!

My Mind is a battle field.
Where...
There is no weapons
No sword or dagger
No man
No animals
No soldiers
No bombs
No bloodshed

Today My mind is not less than a battle field
My thoughts are clashing with one another.
Today, there is battle of thoughts!

On one side is
My gloominess
My anger
My sorrow
My hatred
On which I have to overcome with...

Other side is
My love
My peace
My confidence
My happiness.

I am solely responsible to captivate my happiness.
I have to set it free from this cage.

Winner if I am...
I will wear a crown of love in my heart
I will host a Flag of happiness in my mind.
My voice will sing a song of peace!

As far as thoughts are concerned both the Hindi version and English version are the great poems. I know Hindi is not your mother tongue but you have full control on English language. That is why you are amazing in presenting your thoughts in this poem. On the other hand a Hindi reader understands you more as Hindi immediately touches his heart.
