... Kumud... Kumud, when I see youI see not the tears that you shedBut the hurt in you eyesI hear not the bitterness of the wordsBut the anguish of your soulI see not pride and egoBut a proud woman standing tallI can see the weight on your slender shouldersOf relationships that you are trying to protectOf new bonds that you are trying to forgeAn iron will to not break, nor surrenderHopeless your plight, yet helpless you are notYou have nowhere to go, life has put you in a spotYou burned your past and tried to move aheadWhat you thought was done over and dead,Is back to torment you in ways that are "new"What you thought would be your futureLays fallen, drunk before youYet your spirit is not brokenNor the will to fightKumud Sundari DesaiYou're a true heroine!
