overcome d feelings of lack of talent & fear of coming up wid uninspiring stuff
Beat the brinjal !





All along a dilettante I have been

Time it is now to row the boat it seems

Sitting by the river banks times galore

Eventually I will just grow old, a bore




With nothing to show as a creation of mine

My expressions will all perish with me, inside

A veggie is this life where in I don't leave a mark

Even Brinjal is ahead, with a purpose to nourish & color so dark




Have watched the ocean with amazement so long

Feared the swim that I long to go on

Paving the way for myself to glory

Achieved by expression of self through story





I will dive and swim, till my bones ache with fatigue

Brave the darkness, and waters too deep

My fears and doubts will sink below

As dawn brings the sun to the shore
