Modern Age Girl

Deep down my heart veins, There prevails the clouds of darkness that rains But I condense them like morning dew, Apply on my eyes with its kohl, And the world hymns, so divine and beautiful. Sometimes my blood runs cold and thick, As a steady frozen wind But I embrace them and rouge my lips with its redness, And gazing at them leaves the world speechless At times I hear the world, entangling me in their gossips and words , Twisted up in their jealous rage, Yet, I captive them and wear them around my ears, oh! And how it gleams, so yellow &bright, they are my earings that intertwines the dark sides, unknown to the world that is so wide I often hear the rainstorm of sorrows around me,  and people deeply mourning on a silent breeze But I denounce this endless grief And twirled them in my jet black hair,  and tied them into a ponytail Then they flow so carefree like a glorious dazzling sea,  and how they murmur in Romeo's style, O, she doth teach the torch to burn bright! While walking the edges of my life, I stumble, tremble and get wounded high The rocks and stones become the friends of my feet, Yet, I accept the pain and wear it as a gift Tied up in my anklets that contains all the agony But I walk the streets with all my vanity They sweetly tinkle at my each step, Signaling about the forthcoming future that lays ahead At the midnight in the silence of time, When everyone sets their fancies free but my woes stretches and hardens into infinity And they give rise to, but so soft, so calm yet eloquent, My beautiful bosoms And all men treasures these bright designs, Unaware of the pain it holds inside. Thy earth full of dust and haze, Nights of storms and days of craze all that sings a melancholy strain, but yet I preserve them and personify my body With its flowery polka dress, That creates an exotic grace and that moves men's heart without any stress So here I am all dressed up, Come and click me with all you have As I look so enhanced, Flashing a smile that's so intense, But remember, that's not the smile from my heart and soul, But rather a pain hidden in my belly it bored. I hear some people grumbling and whispering, Staring at my photo and wondering Look at her how graceful she looks Who ravages the world with her trance that allures Alas! How intensely she lives with all her charm And that veils our senses with no alarm Hence now I know that I am an adroit actor Because I can flaunt my pseudo smile faster How much ever I try to suppress my troubled soul, But the hassled clouds reveals The utmost grief it feels, So here I lock all my fantasies, Broken wishes and crushed fancies And throw them higher, far in the future Bury them and forget the twitching agonies I bore Yes, I am that modern age girl whom you adore

Hi SKAT, thank you so much for stopping by. Well I belong to India and English has always been my passion, but unfortunately I could not take the stream. I never gave it a thought of penning down my thoughts when recently I saw my friend doing the same, and believe me, she is a born poet. And then two days bak I thought why not give it a try. And here I am with this poem, and I thank you again for the grand welcome. This is my first poem, so if you can review it and tell me, I would be really grateful. :) Regards, Joy
