A poet’s desperate attempt
Sasha enjoys ranting and rambling while sipping some creamy hot chocolate. She is usually pessimistic about her surroundings but hopes to make a difference someday somewhere. Hopes to rescue all the ailing dogs and herself in the process.

It’s She Versus Sheย
She thought nobody understood
Her strange and elusive moodย
But finally, she thinks somebody doesย
The self-beratingย
The uneasinessย
The inadequacyย
The unceasing worry
The knot in the chestย
Always feels like she could use a restย
She often thinks she is taking sadistic testย
She has rhymed enough for now
Modern science addresses with meds the mumbo jumboย
But why is she still in a limboย
Always feeling the need to impress
But secretly she craves a caressย
She thinks her rhymes are cheesyย
But lest they aren’t sleazy
She has rhymed enough for now
She fears uncertaintyย
She fears failureย
She fears fearย
Dwelling in the pastย
Overwhelmed by the futureย
How to seize the moment, she wondersย
Regrets are too many nowย
They say it’s all in her headย
Is it?ย
They ask her to be positiveย
And to just live
To see what she hasย
To not keep sobbingย ย
So, now she feels like a perpetual burden
Once she tried to unburdenย
To cease the crippling pain
To be showered with a joyous rainย
She has rhymed enough for now
She finds happiness in sadnessย
And sadness in happinessย
Clichรฉd or not?ย
She always sees the glass half empty
With so much sorrow and tragedyย
She wonders if there is a God
But she sure found a dogย
She is a hypochondriacย
Or is it close to being a maniac
She wondersย
She is often in a conflictย
Exhausted of being exhausted
Feeling like a broken loopย
Getting too long isn’t it?ย
Please bear with me.ย
She craves normalcyย
But what is ‘normal’ย
She never feels enoughย
Always desperate to please
An overthinkerย
Gladly not a compulsive drinkerย
But dreads to be an occasional smokerย
She wants to, but she can’t
She tries, but she liesย
At this point she is wonderingย
What is it that she is writing?ย
She keeps seeking validationsย
As she is never proud with her creationsย
She has rhymed enough for now
She wonders why she can’t love herselfย
The way she does with othersย
She is trapped in an open cageย
With repressed rageย
And the semblance of a sage (or not)ย
The cage is openย
But she is sadly happy to be brokenย
She has dug herself a bottomless pitย
There is no landing
Isn’t it saddening?ย
She has rhymed enough for now
She was once violated or multipleย
Remembering it isn’t easyย
She is quite lazyย
Hoping it doesn’t recurย
But life isn’t fair I supposeย
She is insecure
Desperately trying to seek a perfect cureย
But, for once she feelsย
She will be understoodย
She won’t be labelled crazy or messyย
She will be loved and not judgedย
Or is it? Sorry, she has trust issuesย
Now, she thinks she hasn’t rhymed enoughย
Overthinking if this got too stretched outย
She is pulling her hair outย
Hasn’t covered it allย
Oh dear, tell her to calm downย
Before she drownsย
She has rhymed enough for nowย
