Myself
Among them, I stood
longing to be loved
like them,
To be caressed
like them
to be admired
like them....
Later did I know,
never would I ever be
like them...
like them.....
like them.....
for I am no flora
like them
I am no aromatic anglel
like them
I am no colourful cascade
like them
But......
I am a blazing ball
belonging to the sky
unlike them
I am the light
they feed upon
for visual vividness,
Unlike them
I am the Sun
the ally of apricity!
unlike them
Loved from afar
Admired from afar
Inspired from afar
I now see me
I now know me
I now love me
Had I been later
ashes might be the earth
by now.......
