Desires

Be Yourself

By shanmuga priyaPublished 2 years ago 1 min read

Many grapple with questions in life,

Will desires be met.

Let me simplify,

You’ll receive what’s destined.

What’s not meant will stay beyond your grasp,

Sentiments echoed through ages.

From my experience, this I share,

Stay authentic,

Stay true,

Align with needs so real,

You will receive what’s meant.

Let your heart feel.

Don’t compromise for materialistic possession,

Identity lost brings only pain.

Be true to self, let destiny flow,

With genuine joy, your path will shine.

Clarity will come, as clear as crystal,

In life’s great journey, you’ll find what’s right.
