I hum as I type today,
It has never happened before I say.
Silence and a cozy corner for writing I seek,
I told myself today that it was okay to let the music speak.
And bend the rules I made.
Today, I only write this,
it isn’t pure bliss.
Unlearning multi-tasking ain’t that easy,
to me, these words far too cheesy.
But I am trying.
I am unsure of the future,
today I decided that only me I would nurture.
Not my fears, inhibitions or ego,
Today I feel light because I just let go.
I have gained a kilo more, though.
My mental and physical health I promise to take care,
mostly self-care, yeah, including my hair.
Pray, smile, talk more text less,
Write more blog less I guess.
I promise to unconditionally love me and those around me.
New hobbies to my cap I plan to add,
the list is super big and a little mad.
But what’s life if you can’t do what you love,
says even the almighty up above.
To travel, love, find, read and live the moment I decide.
and stop doing things that tear me up inside.
I plan not to pursue but work and wait for what I seek.
Now, it is time you speak….
That is all I can think of today,
I just hope I don’t go astray.
Way to go my girl! Yes, let your hair down, enjoy more, think less! New year is certainly seeing you turn into a new leaf! Cheers and amen to all your wishes and dreams!
Some important promises for the self. What I want to do is put in the hard work where my heart lies and see what comes after that. I don’t want to go without having done what every cell of my being wants too.
Lovely poem. 🙂
Just my thoughts since some time now, Ramya! Live for TODAY, work on yourself today and leave aside the fears that threaten your peace of mind, for they are just a figment of your imagination.
Just go for it, girl! I am there for company, for I too have made some promises to myself, to care for, work on and work for myself, today. We shall think about the future when it comes along.
Wish you a very happy new year, my dear!
Multitasking is something that has left all of us in stress. We all need to learn to take one thing at a time. Prioritizing our health and time is something that must be taken up by all. A Very Happy New Year to you!

Promises at the beginning of the new year….. Hope they all come true for you Ramya.
For me it’s just random thoughts. Not really listed out any promises. Going to let the year take its own course and go along with its flow.
Lovely..way to go Ramya. Stay positive and keep going my friend. Hope you achieve everything you wish for and more. 🙂
