Choices – Delhi Poetry Slam

Choices

By Asha Bhardwaj 

 

Our choices are not our choices
They come from us but do not belong to us

They are like words on the sand
Which have no substance
They are like opinions in the air
Which have no meaning in true sense

They are marred by prejudice
To beseech acceptance, love, dignity
They are a construct to plead…
acceptance in majority, uniqueness in minority

All choices are from others to others
A path of total internal burn
One Day “Others” will dissolve
“Self” will also finish in the long run

Nobody taught us about choices
No scope to know them on our own
False-deceit engulfed us
TRUTH remained hidden-unknown.
