Temerity
written by: Megha Sood
@meghasood16
I’m getting enraged
constantly irked by the
inconsistencies in life
bothered by
the roadblocks
ups and downs
and inequality
small glitches
and bumps
and those
occasional stops
which hinders
forms a patina
to its
constant glow
knocks down the
ebb and flow
Hung between
the tranquil and the turbulence
leaves with me
the frustration
I abhor
Let the melody
play uninterrupted
with no breaks and stops
Let it give the symphonies
in our lives, a home
Let’s give the ever brewing,
temerity
in our lives
a pause.
