Turmoll within, the calm seas without, an irony it is
For raging is a tempest within, cool without, that is to be
Silently pray for calming the fervour, so that you enter within
Yet failed remains the task when storms reappear within.
Take your name I try to, different corners I am dragged to
For control of my mind, I have lost too and tensions I create too.
Remind myself that does art you and you shall do
What is best shall be done, then fear why do I do?
Laziness that has creeped within, fear of unknown why I do
Shall march on the battlefield of karma, do whatever I have to do
This in mind, I want etched always so that confused I shall not be
Firm in decision and mind, no cowardice I project shall do
Afterall your path that I have accepted, not for any whiner it is too
Strong hearted you have to be to conquest the pulls of evil to be
With your hand in my hand, protected always I am to be
Reach my destiny I know I shall, desert me you will not do
Still insecure I find myself to be, angry at my ways I am to be
For gentle and noble art you, yet confidence in you is shaky too
So imperfect I find myself to be breaking down at obstacles to be
Lion hearted I want to be so that proud you can be of me
No more sobs, no more sighs, only joy to be what I am to be
Loneliness I discard the garb when accepted you I have too
Plunge the dagger in my heart if weakened I find myself to be
For punish my mistakes, intolerable that I find them to be.
Confusion shall not create havoc when love I have found too
God, you shall lead me too, hand I don’t want to lose it too
You are mine and I want to come to you, I want to come to you.
- Dr. Ira Shah
