Wonder Days

I wonder whether I should take a step forward
Or wait till the final call comes through dad’s letter.
Lying amidst a big decision to make in life,
It has become tough to throw up for better.

Papa, oh papa, you have shown me the path,
Show this time too, cuddle this time too.
Answers will be so easy, for your child,
And so easy will be for me to accept the glue.

Yes, it is indeed not easy to travel so long
With hands clutched so strong.
Hard to accept still, I will be mom, I know
I don’t sound like an Indian woman who struggles lifelong.

But can’t take out the anxiety of ‘being’
‘To be’ or ‘not be’, ‘A MOM’
Don’t know what to do,
When I have still not forgotten my prom.

Anyone out there, who could convince me take the step,
Anyone who is keen
I am sure dad you would have, if you have been............ :( :(
