CALLING ME NAMES.


They call me a ‘fool’
Some say am ‘crazy’
Others opine that
Am plain ‘careless’
It is their love and
Concern that speaks.
But, what about me?
Dreams and dreamers
Cannot be tamed....
Have heard it somewhere
How can I explain the fire?
The passion that
Ignites and burns bright?
The feelings that just
Don’t leave me
But, are reinforced
By the minute?
Explanations are such a waste
Follow your heart
And be the BEST!

    I could only recall these words from Dr Seuss: “Be who you are and say what you feel because those who mind don't matter and those who matter don't mind.”
    Keep dreaming!

    Hello Janu.
    As a poet, I am renowned for following my heart because love always guides my footsteps (smile).
    Nice imagery.
    Thanks for sharing.
