Self Respect

source

I had offered myself in full
On the plate of society
But some part of my existence
Wallowed up

My self-respect quietly avoided my eyes
That is why it could not be
Ended completely
Even now my heart beats
Against any injustice

I cannot accept those rules
Where human rights depend on discrimination
I break out of my shell and come out
Slowly blowing the conch shell and moving higher and higher

With both my arms I embrace the limitless sky
I deny all the mysteries of the horizon
With the expansion of my vision
I sweep away all the obstacles to my personality growth

In the flow of my thoughts
I get agitated, get disturbed
For a moment I become despaired
The sound of the world’s cry for help reaches within me

I laugh unstoppably for a long time
Slowly….
My momentary war ends
At the threshold of limits
I find myself very helpless
At every stage of my life I just gaze without blinking
At that self-respect
Which had swallowed
Some piece of my existence
Silently, my eyes remain aloof...

Thank you so much for reading. Have a great day 😊🙏 @vikbuddy
