Jump

Go ahead, catch air

And leap

No rope required here

Feel the weightless ease

On free ankles

Lift eager heels

With bended knees

Nearly touching the back of hamstrings

Let gravity settle your feet

Into stable ground

When your up high

It’s hard to come down

Smile with a new found joy

Jump for happiness

That no man can destroy

Love always, Esha

Real Ones

Real Ones  

I gotta give a shout-out to the real ones 

That still believe 

Despite the trauma that the world brings 

You still search for better things 

No longer clinging to the hopes of breaking their ceiling 

That had you reeling 

The injustice of a system that does not care about you 

Or your feelings  

Has failed to stop your climb 

You are a lion inside 

Devoid of the ignorance 

That makes a wise man blind 

Thanks for reading!

Sincerely, Esha
