An Ode To Hopeful Brave Hearts

The finish line is visible, in its slight glamour. I feel an inch closer. I feel an ounce stronger.

I move amidst the spread of tulips

with my heart clenched in my fist,

a bit hesitant, a bit hopeful.

While the wind whispers the tales

of chances, of second glances,

I quietly fill a teaspoon with trust.

Sun blushes with scarlet cheeks

and skies are smeared with orange smiles.

Never miss real stories from India's women.

Register Now

My spirits are warm now

and my nerves calm.

A stream of faith flows through me.

I take small steps of courage,

few towards me,

few away from black holes and violet scars.

The finish line is visible,

in its slight glamour.

I feel an inch closer.

I feel an ounce stronger.

My fingers tremble less

as I secretly write, a new goal today.

I am sure to find my bit of faith

in whistling bees and shining starlets,

and in their humble intentions.

I feel a bit less hesitant,

And a bit more hopeful now.
