Kumud, when I see you
I see not the tears that you shed
But the hurt in you eyes
I hear not the bitterness of the words
But the anguish of your soul
I see not pride and ego
But a proud woman standing tall
I can see the weight on your slender shoulders
Of relationships that you are trying to protect
Of new bonds that you are trying to forge
An iron will to not break, nor surrender
Hopeless your plight, yet helpless you are not
You have nowhere to go, life has put you in a spot
You burned your past and tried to move ahead
What you thought was done over and dead,
Is back to torment you in ways that are "new"
What you thought would be your future
Lays fallen, drunk before you
Yet your spirit is not broken
Nor the will to fight
Kumud Sundari Desai
You're a true heroine!
