Me
My Ma doesn’t seem to respond me well
Not well enough to identify me in her eye
My Pa keeps reminding me of my values
I just crossed a decade in my life
Roll no. 3, Academic Topper, Naughty lil girl
Some synonyms my teachers gift me
Idiot and nonsense gifted by some others
Though I just happen to be me
Just me
The unlucky year arrives
Arrives with it maturity
“You’re a big girl now” my parent reminds
Reminds me of my purity
Active, Jolly, Committed
I play different roles in my life
Life to me as a Student
Life to be still a Child
My me welcomes a new company
Her name seems to be Teen
Arrives with her some designations
Which happens to be gifted to me?
Cell-freak, psycho, stout and chatter
Best friend, Girl Friend, “Cute” and bitter
Me goes hunting to hither and thither
In search of a so called “my character”
Of me being a standard ten learner
Of me being the school orator
OR is it something of me being alone
Just me and only me?
A painter, a dancer and a beautiful young lady
Stick to me for the next pair of years
Years yearned to gain my freedom
I now come to be known as self-earner
A social worker, A web developer
A poet and A manager
My me seems to have found
The requirements for her
She is a girl
She is a daughter
She is a sister
And an Aunt
She is an Indian
She is a Bengali
She is a Baidya
And a plant
Yet to grow its leaves and roots deep inside the earth
And Leave a mark on the surface
To be identified as
Me
Just me
Only me
