Consoled Soul – Delhi Poetry Slam

Consoled Soul

By Yamini Lakshmi Budda

Concealed needs of the vexed existence, seeking for certainty.
Stressed out life, wanting a warm bath.
Erased childhood to build a career, and that career paid me penney in erasing my now.
Growing need of a holding hand and a shoulder to rest, is the life craves for.
Tired of sweating it out for it. Finally got paid with bonus. You, my unanticipated truth.
Tuned my chaotic streaks of desires, into a jazzy rangoli. Assurance of your presence, drained out my heavy soul.
All my musings, credited to you.


Dimples that appear on the cheek, coz I am with you Wettened eyes with threatened sight, coz I am scared of losing you
Don't know why? Heart stays with me, but it's beat runs for you.
Don't know how? self love transformed as my life for you.
Don't know when? your love started to be prey to my happiness.
Don't know what? destiny has planned for me with you.
Still.... Dedicating me to you Is and will be my sustaining action. OH MY LOVE....
