Let me not be a prisoner of my thoughts,
seeking permission for my every act,
or be in hostage of my mind
to doubt every turn I take in my life
Rather, let me take the plunge,
worry free of losses or wins,
and whatever I receive at the end,
and no matter what my fate beckons,
let me be courageous enough
to accept it with a smile
without repentance, grudge or any shade of rile

“Hostage of my mind..” Aren’t we all hostages of either heart or mind?

I like this poem as it gives me the exact reason for each blog I write. I just open my mind and go for it just following the words that come out. In the end it is up to me if I like it first. Then the readers who come to find what is written for them all !!
