Butterfly Star


I asked God to make me a star..
To my dismay He made me a caterpillar...
I grieved looking up at the sight of stars
How glorious they were glittering and shining

My head drooped down with shame
Strange my life is, ugly and awful..
People shuddered at my sight ,moved away..
I dreaded my life and my future bleak..

I want to slowly drift into my solitude
Away from the world, noise and dreams..
I weaved my own shell; it was deformed
My shell was gleaming , I could very well fit in

I glided into the pitch dark of loneliness..
Here I am secure, safe from the reality..
Darkness was scary, silent and abandoned
Tears quenched my thirst and dreams fed me..

And in this stillness, a pain engulfed me..
A pain of change and I feel like new...
Through a ray of sunlight that shined inside
I saw the parade of colors and beauty on me..

I pushed myself out of the cocoon..
Here I am transformed to a beautiful being
I am flying now....along the horizon of skies
I am a butterfly star..gleaming and dancing...

I am one among them..

Image
I gazed and gazed at the sky, To get hold of bright twinkling stars, To give feast for my eyes, to admire their shine But I didn't find one, they were all covered by clouds And my eyes filled with tears, and heart with despair.. I was too immersed in my grief and pain Sorrowed by the lost and the missing Later when I grew weary and bowed my head... To my surprise I realized that "I am one among them"

Solitude

I plunged deep deep into the sea, To hide my face, myself from familarity, One step away from the deepest deep, I smiled, thinking about my solitude But was welcomed by beings, They plunged before me!!!!
