Temptation: A Haiku...!!!


tempted once;
they leave scars; rather
permanent

Written for: Haiku-Heights(part of The April Heights Month)

PS: Normally we get attracted towards wrong acts...but every action leaves a permanent mark on our life...

How I broke the ICE on stage and got comfortable..!!

Image
I had a bad history of stage appearances. Not that, if I reached on stage, someone was gonna come to me and eat me alive, but yeah, that’s how it felt to me. Apart from that what all I felt when I was on stage is tough to describe, but let me make an attempt to the same.
Symptoms were as follows: 1) Looking down at the floor or up on the ceiling, 2) Dry lips, 3) Itchy throat, 4) Elevated heartbeat, 5) Trembling legs, 6) Sweat dripping all over me, 7) Lower than normal voice (I’m already known for not speaking much loudly)
I’ll come back and add more if any other thing pops-up my head, but right now, apart from someone eating me alive, these 7 points I mentioned above were the key highlights of my mental and physical state whenever I stepped on any stage addressing even a crowd as small as 4–5 people. Yeah, I know 5 people might not sound big to you, but for someone who has stage fear and paranoia, for them it is a LOT.
I tried a lot to improve and the harder I worked on it, more anxious I becam…

Behold..!!

The wind was blowing strong, The waves were crashing high, The sun was scorching hot, Making the soft sand burning wild.

I don't hate it, that One of them has always been a dark one. At least, it has always been there for me, My forever companion.
Loyal, as it's always Present in my bad times. Reliable, 'coz It won't judge me even in my worst crimes.
Every evening, I see you sitting on the benches, When I look down from the sky. Some smiles look so genuine and fresh, While few smiles come out as a bit wry.
Some are trying to please others, Some are struggling with the experiences they've sorrowed. Some are trying to make relationships work, Some are buying happiness with the money they've borrowed.
Crippled, That's how you people feel. Like handicapped you behave, Just because in life someone acted like a heel?
Stop depending on others, Stop being a c…
