I wish I was thin, 

I wish I had her flawless skin. 

But why compare ourselves to others? 

Isn’t the original always better than the copy? 

Yes, you are an alluring dream

Your charm is like a queen

Murmurs my inner voice, 

Chafing against the incessant noise....

 Oh, but how will you ever get to this soulful melody,

 and see your own worth

 if you grew up feeling you were never good enough? 


Only when you let the din of criticism die down, 

You will learn Never to allow 

the scars of the past to

influence the way you see yourself.

Never will you let it project

onto the flawless canvas of your

timeless spirit.

 It's time you claimed your spot -- right where the sun shines its brightest every morning!

Happiness can arrive despite

the obstacles on our path.

It is in how we respond on the inside

to the stimuli,

before we can touch it

on the outside

and give it worldly labels,

for our much-limited human comprehension.


Happiness is rarely ever,

only a destination.

It is but a river deep within our soul

that snakes its way

between mountains, valleys, and

sleepy towns etched in stolen memories -

soft yet undeterred,

before it can kiss the sea

in its own time.


Happiness is the fruit of

tranquillity and

oneness,

reconciled between the mind, body, and spirit,

come rain or shine, praise or wrath,

should we have the courage to

truly seek it.

First and foremost –

in ourselves.

Hi everyone 🤗

I am back to India forums after a long hiatus. Nobody knows me, so lemme introduce myself 😆


My name is Sneha Narayanan. I am an author and a poet. My next book, Self Love - Weave Your Own Fairytale will release in 2023 

I quit my corporate job in 2018 to pursue my passion for writing . I come from a middle class Army family, My poems mostly explore themes ranging from body positivity to self-acceptance, positive thoughts, happiness and healing. 

Throughout my life, I have struggled with low self-esteem and body image issues, always seeking approval and a sense of belonging. However, through writing, I have found a way to embrace self-love and acceptance.

I welcome your feedback on my poems and how I can further improve my work. As an author, I understand the importance of continuous growth and learning. Please feel free to share your thoughts and suggestions.

P.S. The above poems written by me, and I would be delighted to hear your opinions and suggestions.

Sneha, poetry is a powerful form of expression, an expression of descriptive imagery, which normally depicts an in depth feeling with an adorned politeness. 

Nicely written poem, I loved it so much. 🤗
