THE LITTLE CHAMBER...... There's a hope growing in, The heart tender and clear, There's the sun rising high, For obstacles it didn't fear. Growing high as it rose, Inspite the darkness in the sky, Blown away by the dark, Bearing the brightness of the day. There's a ray of light, In the dark shining bright, Blinding me still in sight, Showing me paths to quit my fright. Sitting still in the little chamber, Thinking why the world's so dark, Until the sunshine struck her, Through a hole, like a spark. It was just a tiny unremarkable rupture, Which showed her the bright world out, She no longer captivated herself, In the world of self doubt. She broke through the chamber, That kept her away aside, It was the little chamber, Where now she didn't want to reside. The little spark of light, Changed her forever, And she was filled with strength, Like she had had never. ------- RAJALAXMI BEHERA

LOST IN MY SOLITUDE....... Hovering as the sun sets, Lowering as the day ends, Counting all the messages, That my lonely heart sends. Wondering something vaguely, Unknown to what's next, Just being a broken soul, Don't want to bother anyone lest. Procrastinating every moment, Keeping every work due, Wondering if there's anything, My mind lacking every clue. Something I needed strongly, Was it care or love? It was just some motivation, To lift my conscience above. Probably I'll be able, To calm my heart and mind, Those vague wonderings disturb me, I need to move on with time. ------- RAJALAXMI BEHERA

JUST A WALK ON A WINDY EVENING.... On a cold windy evening, I moved out for a walk, Moving through the cold winds, Just forgetting every stress of work. The chilling wind touching me, Making my skin shiver, Giving me chills in the freezing cold, As if I was beside a river. I could feel the dew melt on my hair, And some drops sliding through my curls, It wasn't snowing out still, The wind moved in a swirl. My body shivered terribly then, My feet felt numb through the cold, I couldn't move ahead that fast, The weather was more severe than I could withhold. And now I remember it wasn't an evening, It was late night that day, I was so tired that I lost all sense of time, As if my mind was astrayed. ------- Rajalaxmi Behera

BOUNDLESS....... Free of thoughts, Free in the world, Like a feather floating, Along with the air. Unknown to the direction, Still moving with ease, Being carried away, Having nothing to appease. It's boundless to the bars, Rigid and coarse, It keeps floating, As if it is to be so. Unknown to the fact, What is coming next, Hard winds to blow away, Or gentle wind taking to flower beds. It's boundless, it's free, It is void of all stress, Moving unknown, just unknown, As if it has nothing to redress. ------- Rajalaxmi Behera

DROP IN THE OCEAN....... Lost in the crowd, Like a drop in the ocean, Seeking it's identity, In the universe of commotion. Flapping on its existence, Reluctant to the cure, Making remarks of hesitance, Creating situations sore. Unrecognised as lost, As drowned in thoughts, Of existence unknown, Just willing to be known. Being one of its kind, Helped it grow, To be visible, And not just flow.... It wasn't anymore, Just a drop, It was unique in its own, Which the world couldn't stop. ------- Rajalaxmi Behera

BREAK THROUGH....... Break the cell that is keeping you away, From the sunshine of the bright lit day, Move out to a world of yours today, Where opportunities are making their way. Break the silence which keeps you moaning, Won't let you express your sorrows and groaning, Run away to the place you have your voice, To the world that lets you keep going. Break the bars of the prison keeping you back, You're the only hope that your life has, Be courageous to keep yourself awake, If you won't do it for yourself, then who will do it? Alack!! If you are broken because of the outside world, There's always a feeling cold, You've to be tough to resist as such, No one could do anything much. Your inner strength matters much more, Than the intended feelings sore, Be courageous and strong, No one can do anything wrong.......

CRUMBLED....... I was standing alone, There was nothing I feared to be gone, There was no way back home, Cause my mind had a thought's storm. Overthinking was an issue, My mind lacked every clue, There was a need for a new start, Who'll give me such a dart. I was all alone, Building a castle of my own, Pairing up only stones, I knew sometime everything will be gone. I was not afraid, Of losing anything in the world, There was a story yet to be told, But for that I needed to be bold. Gathering my crumbled self, Cause I knew it was to be done myself, Moving on with a new enthusiasm, May it help me to overcome my situation. ------- RAJALAXMI BEHERA

SHE BELIEVED....... Quoting down her life, She wrote every day, Glances of happenings, Which she thought worthy to say. Her pen was her weapon, She penned more than she spoke, Nerd,dumb and many other harsh, Were the words with which she was provoked. But she was quite , she was still, This potrayed her significantly, She wrote and made herself worth, For the world to think of her magnificently. She heard from many, But she cared for none, It was her own determination, Making her future bright as the sun. She believed in herself, Then why will she fail? When she'll shine bright, Her haters will surely turn pale. ------- RAJALAXMI BEHERA

With all the positivity and perseverance put on with smiles, let's have an authentic and positive point of view of seeing everything we come across.  Time passes leaving its traces as memories, towards a new phase of life. Let's feel and soak in the positivity of the new year. Apart from all that I have something to announce regarding the upcoming content now onwards. I'm so sorry for not posting anything since so long and as many of you might have noticed that I've been posting blank posts since the past few weeks, the reason is I've been having a tough time. Tough in terms of low self-esteem, anxiety, overthinking and many other factors leading to an emotional and mental outbreak. But I've recovered mostly now and I feel optimistic now so I hope I'll be posting c...
