Overcome Poem by janani ashwin

You have
overcome the cause
that messes a bit
In your will to live
like every other creature
big or small
the eater - shyness

She came by you
Simply but sure
The killer that beckoned
You in spite of your own
Bodily contradictions
She called shyness

She ate your soul
even as you threatened
To cut her to size
But she grew and grew
Until a day came
Decide you did to
Abandon her

The other she took over
It's only yesterday
Her thoughts so full
Of your rising passion
Your boldness cherished
Amazingly dealt
To prove without doubt
That you have overcome
The other she
