Reasons To Die
written by: Vansika Pareek

With this concluding point in my diary,
which is yet not the end, I traverse on a century on
reasons to die but not one to live,
as if I am the only child carrying this curse;
of heartbreaks, loss and disdain.
I am still an amateur soul for I looked at my heart
to erase my whole,
how many more reasons would I blame,
when the stomach and other parts would join this frame?
Did I not see that naked child
who does not long clothes or rain
but just a bread to soothe his pain?
Did I not see that man
who does not long a leg or a chair
but just shoes to repair?
Did I not see that girl
who does not long a house or a shade
but just a brush to paint?
Did I not see myself
who does not need reasons to smile
but just enough pain to realize that there is
someone walking over mine yet
she is fine?
