The way to my heart
Is not easy at all!
It’s locked in tight
No access on mere call.
Cannot think of the quick way
My bones, you will not break
There is another way out
It’s a pretty tedious way to take.
The path is lit up at places,
At times dark to scare you away
Seems like an infinite labyrinth
Need patience to find the way.
Mirrored lanes of ego,chauvinism,
Lure you to make way n step in
One wrong turn will take you back
Right there, where you did begin
My roots, My past, My memories
that built me up or broke me apart
They run in every inch of my veins;
Maze of veins leading to my heart
Will you take this path?
Are you ready to travel?
The mystery in me,
you wanna unravel?

Reena’s Exploration Challenge. Thanks for hosting it, Reena. I don’t know if this is an apt response for the prompt. The last week’s prompt spurred so many thoughts, feelings and emotions .. so strong .. that it dint manifest into words. 😛 Wanted to give it a shot this week. As usual, I’m not very happy with the take but going ahead and publishing it anyways 😊Thanks for reading
Wow! This is the exact way to my heart. Nobody was able to reach the destination yet though.😂
Well expressed!❤

This is an outstanding piece 👏👏. People impose their expectations, and lose their way to someone’s heart, or get thrown right out.
