Title: A Tired Soul Poem by Umasree Raghunath

When I slip in pain
I do not know where to disdain
All my happiness revolved
Around one single soul
Who without any qualms provoked
My inner sense to succeed
Slowly but steadily
I have done all the tasks
That my master laid for me
I have carried all the bricks
To construct the blocks of life
I did my best to be a good wife
Yet one day, the showers fell
Making me cry in pain to yell
Less did I realize that it is?
For I always was with in an inner bliss
The bliss of being totally cared
The bliss of being ardently loved
Unless the showers of love disappeared
I did not realize how much I was cared
As I missed the pampering all in life
I started behaving like unfaithful wife
Did in me dawn a realization
That I have reached my saturation
The point to feel the life complete
The point of hope that life contained
No more want to travel this road
Of life to succumb to the pressure load
Tired are my eyes with the nightmares
Gone through in the recent past
Tired is my soul searching all times
For its inner urge and master of all
Tired are my limbs, working so hard
Do never know when this gets out of my ward
There is no strength in me
To make me feel wanted and live again
Gone are my thoughts to the doors to close
Closure of the doors to my life sooner to dose
Nothing can solace my tired thoughts
Nor can anything give me the comfort pots
Rotten I am after all the unwanted rot
Do not know my fate has in store to get
All I want to stop is to further fret
Memories are abundant in galore
That can make my life meaningful so far
Do not want this disdained days to capture
Memories of sadness for my future
Want to disappear from this world
When the whole world regards me as a star
Think its time after all the praises this year
I wanna reach my dad without further fear
