in words i find myself
in words i lose myself
i play with words
they hide, i seek
i hide, they seek
when we are together
we make a poem
that poem is me.
I’m a poet to begin with, and to end. whatever else i am, i am in-between the two. An academic by profession, an Eliot Scholar, a dreamer, i’m more than i know….i write because i need to, words hover about me until they have found a form. Writing is my only catharsis, in Joycean terms an epiphany, it is where i find myself again and again…
I am…
an introvert…for those who fail to strike a chord. a babbler for others who wouldn’t know how to get me listening.
a true piscean… if it comes to day dreaming. though i barely believe in zodiac foretellings…but still i always hear them echoing my story!
a dreamer…who keeps dreams to her cocoon.blemishing them with reality…i doubt if they’ll be b’ful anymore.
an escapist…who has her own world…b’ful than dreams.
I Have…
ambition, passion, enough grey matter to get my way through, an unflinching belief in myself, loving Family, friends who care unconditionally….
I Want….
wings to fly, heart to conquer- My World, passion to achieve what’s in my reach and wisdom to know what’s not, to capture every moment in my words, to write a bestseller:)
I believe….
in being myself, however imperfect i might be! infact i love being imperfect. i agree with Wallace Stevens when he says “Perfection is death”.
I think…
“in small propotions we just beauties see, in small measures life can perfect be.”- Thomas Gray.

loved that poem that appears at the beginning of your profile–sometimes you seek and words hide; sometimes words seek and you hide. What a neat way to express a common experience of the creative writer!

I liked your comment on my blog, and I really enjoy your poetry. Poetry does not come naturally to me, so I fear I miss a lot of what you are saying. Still, I enjoy your thoughts. Don’t be a stranger.
