From Silence to Resilience!

Here’s an inward-looking, women-centric poem where Aishwarya talks of her voyage, her insecurities and strengths, for Different Truths.

as I pondered in silence...
my life reeled before me
from when I’d my sensibilities
a myriad of collages replayed
some clear, some cluttered,
yet, somehow they all mattered!
 
a journey indeed ~
it’s been for me...
from innocence to maturity,
melancholy to serendipity,
seen it all, done it all, and
learned from every climb n' fall
there were the lows n' the high
sense ambled with the worldly sighs!
 
awed, stricken, diffident n’ disdained
every emotion within me has been raked
been a wreck when filled with void
but have also experienced the sheer pride
bouncing back has been a pattern of my life
through every crisis, windfall, and strife!
 
Destiny’s favourite child, that is me ~
I’ve accepted it now and set myself free
in the depth of silence, I found the key
resilience, it shall be until eternity!
