To the dark circles that form under her eyes

And the dishevelled hair from sleeping on the mat floor


With her laptop screen opened and blacked,
As she buns her hair, and stretches her muscles
To overcompensate the burden she carried on her mind
Brainstorm and more brainstorm,
Apparently always lost in the thoughts
"Chatter in the skull"
She switched the laptop on and instead
She pressed "Shutdown"
The victorious smile as she strode down the stairs,
Grabbed her helmet and off she went
She wished she could smile at the stranger's blunt stare
Of how vivacious and elegant she is,
But she gets agitated as she remembers,
any meaningless talks, she scoots off
as she is drained,
of how her mind and soul tickles,
only to more calculations
and to run
As ambitious as she is,
She is not who stays in front of her mirror
Admire how she looks
But always does she tames herself
To a better self everyday,
She is just an ordinary girl
Frolicking on the oceans of success,
She is timid,
As it comes to self love,
Her plump face and her empathic soul
Is an anguish sometimes
As she dissolves her technical mind
And slacks her day off
Hitherto she keeps moving
Stops sometimes at the mirror,
Winks back to her soul that needs healing,
Makes faces, pouts to herself,
She is timid but she won't stop
Loving herself,
Because her plump face and technical mind
Has to collaborate to bring in herself
The vivacious her, the lovely her,
The woman everyone admires,
And the person who loves herself
And love the world again
Despite the dark circles that form underneath her eyes,
And skate over the next part of her life story
As God acclaimed her sleeve
