I had words, rhyme and scheme
But I laid back because I failed to speak

And with all talents I sit around
Like the water that could be river but was stagnant on ground

Everyday I promised myself tomorrow I'll open my beak
But I laid back because I failed to speak

I was not a lazy one
Neither I hesitated in putting effort
But the veils I had put I was reluctant to put them off
And so my skills laid covered with dirt

But now I will speak
With all the cracks and stutters in my voice
I will learn to embrace my flaws first
Ever before I dream to rise

Even the moon is not perfect all nights
Yet it shows up in sky each day
I too will make mistake and go wrong
But this shall not prevent me from rising and display

And after couple of fortnights
Moon achieves its perfect oval
With few days of struggle
Even my talent would get its avowal

I will be the moon that may vanish for a day
But would show up the next day however small it may
And everyday by little I will grow
And grow till I can emit my brightest ray....

Would you still love me on the worsts of my day

 Dear husband,

Someday I would not be your sweet sweet honey,
I would try hard yet I would not be good to anybody,
I will yell, I will blabber, I will cry, I will be as rough as a quay,
But would you still love me on the worsts of my day?

That pretty woman you get up to each day would no more be around,
Her hair would be messed and she would dress like the lamest one in the town,
Her glittering eyes may be tired and baggy, tales of her miseries they would say,
But oh dear, would you still love me on the worsts of my day?

The food I cooked for you may be a little raw or may be a little burnt
I had tried hard to make the best but it was the best I could have earned
The salt and pepper when deceives her, would  you still appreciate your bae,
Dear husband would you still love me on the worsts of my day?

'I love you's may be replaced by 'just leave me alone'
I would still want you to come and kiss me but my words would say 'it's over,we are done!'
When her insecurities and frustrations build up fogging the slightest bright ray,
Would you still love me on the worsts of my day...

I will still be loving you, looking at you even when I don't say a word,
All expectations I hold from you because you alone make my whole world.
Would you lend me your hand when I am struggling to make it work anyway,
Through thicks and thins would you still stand with me on the worsts of my day...


Husband's reply:

I will hold your hands and make you dance,
I will be really silly and make you laugh.
I will pluck your nose and tell you you are mine,
In brights or in darks you are my sun shine.

I will play with your entangled hair and place a little fragrant rose there,
I will lift up your tired eyes and make you a little bright with my care.
Even if lamest I will walk around with my hands in your waist proudly in the town,
I will help you meet the real you every time that you are down...

Though burnt or raw the food would smell of you,
It would tell the tale of efforts you put into everything  for me that you do.
And so I will enjoy every little bite of your love,
And give you a sweet desert at by placing a kiss on your lips above.

I will still stay when you say leave me alone,
I would never be done even if you say we are done.
For all your yells and tears I will lend you my ear,
And when you are done I will cuddle you and tell you I still love you dear.

Because I know even if today annoyed by life, you are still my same cute lovable bae,
Life is a constant struggle, running in this race you will feel tired some day.
And when that day shows up I will make you meet your strengths again,
I will stand with you till my beats retire because you are the reason I wake up happily each day...
