the myths of today
intolerance against life lived
breaking social norms
* I have to confess.. I am not able to complete many haiku I begin to create nowadays and I tend to erase even those I ended up creating and didn’t like. I am more comfortable in writing the haiku related to nature or cultural symbols. This haiku is written in response of Carpe Diem # 237.
It was a few years back
that people used to
call me an orator-
the one really eloquent
in conversation, the one
who can talk with any one
and today I find myself
at a path where
I find it difficult to
even talk to myself.
It was a few years back
when I was confident,
always striving to be a leader
and see today I find myself
cowering behind,
wanting some one else
to take the responsibility
while I just see it
from the back.
How time changes
and how much I have
changed,
how much my life
has changed me.
