I WANT TO REMAIN 'I'
Beautiful to look
Eyes to hook
Earth to shake
& feelings to wake
Is not my cup of tea.......
The craze & thrill
To become cynosure of all eyes
To dress to kill
To make things happen the way one likes, may be irresistible
But not my way to look at things
To make headlights fall on me.
But I am not going to change,
I want to remain I,
Let my face don't lie
Beauty I don't need to buy,
I am plain and simple
Dark is my skin
But I bother not a pin
Though u may think a lot. But tell me
Is this my fault ???

Hey Brinda, you've done pretty damn well to stay honest in a poem, that's something great right there, it's impossible to truly write poetry if you're lying to yourself. That's step 1. If I may, take it to a word document and tighten it up, fix the punctuation, add commas and full-stops where you think it'll work best to have the reader pausing and really getting into a poem. Try and cut down the use of small words, use your vocabulary, because yours is pretty damn good! You've got some metaphors in there, try and expand on that, subtly is your friend!
Good write Brinda, keep the faith.

I agree with you because the emotion is there. What is needed is the power of language. Its never a necessity to write big words. Simple words can make one feel what probably the jargon cannot.

I'm a lil troubled by what feels like your 'over thinking'
others intentions, I'm all for original n unique... But really it sounds like (unless I'm misinterpretting) you WANT to be alone period... n in my opinion what is life lived by yourself?
love is NEVER to culprit my friend :)
