Two Sides

Naked feet dipped in salty sea
Breeze shifting something in me
Looking at the ever changing sky
I realise, ponder, wonder and sigh
at the battle between the two halves
of my identity which are nothing but
the morales against the rationales
which are nothing but who I am
against who I pretend to be
which are moons apart yet in one body
constantly fighting to win everybody
but to lose myself slowly and steadily

Which plan to choose?
Easy or tough
Which path to follow?
Smooth or rough

Life gives us two options
One is easy, tough the other one
Easy is the way towards stormy sea
Tough takes you to the calm locality
Every person has two sides
One is shown, hidden the other one
A duality governed by the balance
of light and darkness, within us
is capable for both good and evil
Those holding the true power and will
blur the moral dividing line inch by inch
making identity stronger stitch by stitch

Which plan to choose?
Easy or tough
Which path to follow?
Smooth or rough

About the Poetess

Capt. Priya Jain is a pilot with Air India. Spotting aircraft in the skies in her childhood gave birth to her dream of flying an aircraft, a dream she achieved at the age of 17. While flying gives her a high, writing keeps her grounded. But she finds both equally liberating. Priya started writing at the age of 14. When she was in Class 11, she paid tribute to her teachers through her first poem, titled “SHE”. “SHE” was printed in Hindustan School Times, the edition of Hindustan Times that is meant for school children. That gave her the motivation to write more. She writes blogs about poetry, flying experiences, dilemmas in life, philosophy and Haikus.

For Priya, writing is a need, as well as a form of therapy. Wheels Up! is her first book.
