Emotionally Challenged


I have big dreams and ambitions
I generate ideas faster than
I can keep up with them
With my contemplative rhythm

Lots of interests and passions
Confused as to what to do first
I am trying to accomplish a lot
In spite of all my limitations

I am not living up to my potential
Slowing down due to shifting priorities
I feel inadequate beside my friends
Trying to find solitude from time to time

Constantly in search of something
To make me happy and contended
Time to make powerful choices
Manage my life with my heart

The plan is to prioritize my goals
Simply taking one step after another
Getting ahead at my own pace
Count on persistence to do the magic

I am emotionally challenged
Strong outside with a soft inside
Couldn’t change how ever I tried
Is there someone similar to confide?

Accept Me


I am different and so are you
Accept me without further ado
I thought it was easy to accept you
But I do not get your point of view

You started deciding things for me
Setting rules without letting me free
Trust me for once and cut me loose
The freedom you give; I'll not misuse

Do not think I am vulnerable and weak
I am strong in my own way and unique
I agree it is not easy and I make you sad
Try talking to me without getting mad

I am who I am; I can never become you
Can’t we come to terms and start anew
I crave for your acceptance all the way through
Do understand, I am different and so are you!


Dedicated to all those who are being judged for who they are!

No rules, no fear - An acrostic poem

Not to plan

Once in a while


Risk my emotions

Unravel the mystery

Listen to my heart

Enjoy being me

Sound more confident


Never ever sulk

Overcome anxiety


Fear no more

Enlighten my soul

Ask for help

Reinvent myself
