No time for tears – Delhi Poetry Slam

No time for tears

By Shriya Kothari

Mind filled with fears
So many tears.
Too much of darkness—
Can’t stand here.

Deep in the ocean,
Deep in the dark,
Let out my emotions—
But not as “Your Highness.”

You call me princess
Of River Lethe,
Can’t forget the stress
Still rushing in me.

Don’t know how to fight
The scary nights.
I'm in the rivers,
Dying in the rivers.

Don’t want these tears,
Fighting my fears.
Ocean’s my place—
Wanna live in cheers.

Light is any desire,
Burning like fire.
Use it as a lamp,
And come higher.

No time for tears—
Fight all my fears.
This is my ocean,
And I rule here.
