🌷 Making Our Own Choices…


🌷 Making Our Own Choices...
Poetess : Tilottama Vijay Lele

It's a world that thrives on understanding
N conveniently categorizing everything...

Der’s always this societal pressure,
To fit into L'il boxes of relations n career

It’s like there’s an unspoken rulebook
We’ve to navigate life to go through...

Like find a job, a partner to settle down,
N make sure all of these things do align

With other people’s expectations...
It's interesting when it really happens

When path takes few unpredictable turns
Rather than precise straightforward lines

If such things don’t exist in our world,
Then it would feel a livelier than ever.

Expectations n unseen pain, we all carry
But never get a chance to say sorry...

A life unknown to others can be isolating,
But it can also be incredibly freeing.

Once we let go of d need for approval,
We realise that those things were trivial

Unnecessarily we were wasting energy
On trying to explain our moves in entirety

Der’s such a relief n peace in knowing
That our choices R ours alone only

N don’t require a round of applause
Or a validation from everyone else...

When we realise this whole journey
Is about showing courage in choosing

Own, unique choices about our life
It's a fact that all can't understand it

N that’s alright, rather perfectly great
As Relations R built on mutual respect

When life's messy n full of contradictions
Der'll be definitely worthy connections

If all understand decisions we made,
It’s like living a life that is scripted...

Often we follow a path so predictable,
That Der’s nothing like questionable...

But life isn’t a fill-in-d-blanks worksheet
It'll make sense to a person who's living it

Life is a direct result of our choices...
Let's take chances n Make Own Choices
