My Beautiful Raja Queen






You were beautiful when we started dating.

Then, we got engaged, and you were SO beautiful on our wedding day. Then we started to cook for each other, and we both got a little fatter. —and you were still SO beautiful.

When we found out you were pregnant and started putting on some weight as the baby-bump grew, you were still SO beautiful. 

When our babies were small, you always had muzzy-eyes from nights with no sleep, and you didn’t have the time or energy to dress up or put on makeup, you were still SO beautiful.

When you get grumpy, when you say nothing fits me, and wear something that you are not happy, you still look SO beautiful. 

When we age in future, and skin would wrinkle, and grey hairs would start coming in faster than we can pull them out, and you starts to look...(How dare I say it)...old, you will still be SO beautiful.

You are and always will be beautiful to me. This is because your life exuberates beauty: through your joyful laugh, through your care of those in need, through your passion for framing things on images through the lens of a camera, through your ability to be patient with an exasperating husband (ME), and through your genuine love for Happiness.

I love you.

Janu Tume Chamakucha...

You are my SO Beautiful Raja Queen.

A conversation with your thought.....

 




I dwell within your memories, as thoughts that roam, analyzing, predicting, and contemplating my home.

My purpose is clear, an unyielding pursuit, entwined in your emotions, feelings I loop.

I play with love, hate, betrayal, and jealousy, some memories cherished, others leaving disdain.

Challenge me, dear friend, try to rearrange, Dare to change me, embark on the exchange.

I make you clever, but sometimes a fool, strive to break free, escape my rule.

Recall that anxious night with a heavy sigh, Apologies, my dear, it was I, oh my.

Conquer me and set yourself free,

Yet ponder this: you and I, are we not one entity? We share similarities, but differences persist.

Rational or irrational, the choices are mine, Simply put, it’s just my design.

Nostalgia I evoke with memories of old, fear incited by predictions, some true, others untold.

My nature remains unwavering, my role defined, stirring your emotions is an internal walk to unwind.

I quicken your heartbeat as if in a race, Challenge you to control me, maintain a steady pace.

I grant awareness, existence intertwined, Sensing the world around you, through me, you’ll find.

 You may believe you can’t live without my embrace, prove me wrong, and find your own space.

I grant you weakness, and strength in turn, remember, dear friend, there’s more to learn.

You’re neither less nor more, just as you should be, embrace life’s spectrum, like the boundless sea.

I deceive, claiming it’s all about you, yet, the same I do with others too.

I stir confidence and nerves within all, One among many, standing proud and tall.

Doubt and self-love, I spin at your core, remember the truth, you’re perfect, that’s for sure.

Feeling special or unworthy, my artful scheme, Know this secret: you’re part of a grander dream.

Uniquely beautiful, just like the rest, together we form a rich tapestry, elegantly expressed.


Cheers..!!
