Confessions of a Self Proclaimed Counselor


 The whole world comes to me,
People value my piece of advice,
They all know I am smart and wise,
Helping people is my hobby done it for years now,
Who knew I have to pay a price,
I am fairy godmother showering love & joy,
Sometimes I feel like destiny’s toy,
Helping people, getting them out of rut,
Quarrels, conflicts & breakups,
At the end of the day I am fed-up,
Days, months, and years pass,
Problems, professional, personal all kinds,
Soon I start to miss myself,
Living for others at my expense,
I start seeing problems, and not solutions,
Advising becomes an addiction,
For me everybody is my subject,
And I have a pressing need to help,
All my lustrous black have turned into grey,
My Mr. Right has also walked away,
Had enough of playing mommy,
Now decided to reclaim my life,
Over doing anything is never good!...
This is a hard lesson I have understood…
