I Get To Live

This poem is a powerful affirmation of the simple yet profound joys of existence. It celebrates the freedom to experience life in all its facets, from the smallest moments to the grandest dreams.



I get to live, I get to breathe,
I get to love and chase my dreams.
I get to laugh, I get to cry,
I get to watch the stars up high.

I get to start fresh, a brand-new day,
I get to find my own unique way.
I get to sleep, I get to wake,
I get to learn from each mistake.

I get to dance to my heart's own beat,
I get to share smiles with those I meet.
I get to taste, to share a tart,
I get to cherish this beating heart.

Oh yes, I get to live, to thrive,
To feel the magic of being alive.
I get to dream, I get to give,
And oh, how sweet—I get to live.

I get to live.
I get to live.


In these verses, life is embraced fully—both its light and its challenges. The repetition of "I get to live" is a reminder to cherish every moment, to find joy in every breath, and to be grateful for the opportunity to simply be alive.

Game Of Fire and Ice

Hey Mister, Why won't you play a game of Twister? I promise I won't play coy. Won't you love it if I were your only toy? You can be the Lion in the boardroom, Then make me roar in the bedroom. Let's play the game of fire and ice. You bring the sugar, and I get the spice. I am praying by myself these nights, Drowning my moans when the city sleeps tight. We can play the game of Super Sonic, And then have our own race over some gin and tonic. So find me, like an app can find a phone. No, I won't bring out my Medusa and turn you into stone. I have been getting over my fears, Learned to make my tears into spears. You can take me as you like. We can go until we hear the third strike.

Polished Sins

  A suit and tie, that polished smile, Covering up sins stacked mile by mile. They flaunt “new love,” someone else’s child— A ready-made story, perfectly styled. They’ve “levelled up,” or so they preach, But on someone’s pain, they made their reach, With vows of loyalty, words so neat, While another’s screams lie beneath their feet. Oh, they “moved on” to brighter skies, Leaving someone broken, with silent cries. They mount new heights, they shout and boast— Scaling peaks on another's haunted ghost. So smile for the camera, flash your pride, Show off the life that you tried to hide. For we know the truth beneath your gleam— A hollow show, a self-made scheme.

Till You Sing

Some would say men went to war for women like you, But I would still choose war if it meant choosing you. You say you write in amorous lines, But I would let you be the woman of my tribe. You had your adventures Under The Buda Moon, But have you been loved past noon? So I can see you shine like a magical flower, In the quiet warmth of the golden hour. The invisible strings pull at my heart Can I do justice to your name? Caress you right, Till you sing like a Carnatic hymn. Inspired by the author of Under The Buda Moon,  Veena Rao
