Reveal Your Soul - Written By D. Sarkar 26th September 2012


How to progress in yourself?
Can you allow vulnerability?
Set aside your fears
And recognise your own humility?

Walls stand in your way
What’s behind them will uplift
Trying to break them down
Can allow your pain to shift

You don’t have to hide from yourself
You don’t have to endure alone
And if you push these feelings away
The real you is not shown

So remove that mask
And reveal your soul
Deal with your fear
Take back control

Open up to someone who cares
Tell them all
But how can you trust
That they don’t want you to fall?

Perhaps if that person
Has also opened up to you
Shown their weakness
When they have stumbled too

They know what it takes to resolve
Faced fear of what you may think
They bared their souls with bravery
Because they didn't want to sink

They know when they've gone it alone
They suffer and get confused
Yes, inside are many answers
But another may have more clues

So open up to that someone
Knowing you won’t be forsaken
They could be the key to your freedom
The real you could be awakened

Reality Won't Digress - Written By D. Sarkar 2nd August 2008

Onwards upwards
Forever in our grasp
It’s now we are alive
For our needs we just ask

With life we can learn
About our desires
Look deep within
Seek what lifts you higher

Embrace who you are
Be grateful for what you have
Decipher your dreams
And use them to enhance

Hold on to a good thought
Focus on its strength
Your belief will allow
That feeling to commence

And if it is true to you
You will achieve
Your future holds no bounds
This you must believe

So think those great thoughts
And your wishes will manifest
No matter how far fetched
Reality won’t digress

Proud To Be Me - Written By D. Sarkar 9th September 2009

Proud to be me
What does this mean
Comfort in your own skin
Satisfaction deep within

You must love you
Without needing recognition
Listen to your heart
It will give you ammunition

The real you is wise
It knows you inside and out
It sees that you are beautiful
And is offended by your doubt

So any time you feel ashamed
When looking at you
Seek clarity from inside
And you'll find a better view

You are amazing
You are unique
Stop creating struggles
Stop this self defeat

Today Is Your Relief (a dedication to Love and Peace Day) - Written by D. Sarkar 28 April 2009

This is a day to make effort
To be happy that you are you
Be thankful for all that you have
Give praise where it is due

Try and focus on good
Stop yourself from a moan
Don't read bad news or tell bad tales
Be hopeful about the unknown

Have pride in all you've achieved
Be happy for others too
And show gratitude for their input
When they have assisted you

Send love to those less fortunate
Leave your bills until tomorrow
Put any problems on hold
In self pity you must not wallow

Just for one day be aware
That you are a lucky soul
Strong, loving and loved
Secure and in control

So celebrate this special occasion
With a dedication to Love and Peace
Don't worry about the future or past
For today is your relief

Que Sera Sera - written by D. Sarkar 14th March 2012

I am so worried
What am I doing?
Who am I now?
Where am I going?

Sleepless nights
Muscles are tight
Will I or won't I?
Do I have a right?


What if that happens?
What if I don't succeed?
Where is my support?
I am in need


Have I done the right thing?
Will I prevail?
What will happen?
Am I going to fail?

Questions questions
Fears and hopes
Must battle on
Must learn to cope

What will be will be
That's the way it goes
You have a destiny
The future will show

Worry wastes time
Creating negative feeling
Que sera sera
That is your dealing

So stop with the panic
And go with the flow
Make sound judgement
That is how to grow

Your heart and head guide
Your spirit is inside
Ask it for assistance
Keep your being alive

To Be An OT - Written By D. Sarkar 7th March 2012

To be an OT
What does it mean?
When others are restricted
On an OT they can lean

We all have daily tasks
We wish to complete with independence
We want to occupy our time
Doing things which bring us contentment

A bilateral amputee
Who wants to be able to walk
A victim of a stroke
Who again has to learn to talk

A youth with anxiety
Who just wants to be happy
A lady with arthritis
Wants to change her grandson’s nappy

A man with Down Syndrome
Eager to be employed
A woman with a brain injury
Who wants to study Freud

In life we all have goals
But for some they are harder to reach
Sometimes we have to learn a different way
And that’s where an OT can teach

When you struggle to achieve by yourself
And want to cross that boundary
You can learn a new way
By using Occupational Therapy

Against all the odds
Things can really be better
Have a little faith
And be a true go-getter!

Peace Profound - written by D. Sarkar 4th March 2012

It's just me alone
And my inner voice
No one else to talk to
So I have no choice

Silence surrounds
But inside is random chatter
Trying to find the truth
And the root of the matter

Should I? Shouldn't I?
Did I try?
Who was I then?
Is that a lie?

Where am I going?
Am I in control?
Why did that happen?
What is my goal?

Clarity is required
Need silence inside
Breathe in deep
Focus my mind

Thoughts come and go
But I give no attention
Except for positive hope
Those are my affirmations

Of my true desires
For who I am today
The past has passed
And the future is in play

Keep re-adjusting
Our thoughts can be improved
It's about what's coming
The future is self-approved

Now close your eyes
Use your breath to calm you down
Then look up with gratitude
And find a peace profound

Life and Times - written by D. Sarkar 20th Feb 2012

Who are we? 
Why are we here?
Are we going the right way?
Or are we held back by fear?

What is our goal?
Is everyone the same?
Generally speaking
We all hope to gain

Control of our future
Achieving desires
Learning ourselves
Reaching up higher

Understanding our past
Accepting our present
Be aware of our failures
But don’t allow descent

For me I hope to be better
For me I want to achieve
Knowing my set backs
In happiness I believe

So that is my goal
Seek guidance from within
Decipher external wisdom
Try and aim to win

Others may stay stagnant
But that is their choice
Each one of them is required
Each has their own voice

So let them be
And focus on “me”
Not to be selfish
But to set yourself free

Discover The Unknown - written by D. Sarkar 16th June 2007

Moving through your life
A past, present & future process
Changes are inevitable
How we adapt reflects our success

But how on this earth do we live?
With what are we equipped?
Life can sometimes be torture
Can we keep our soul & minds fit?

But this is what life is about
Cope with strenuous things
See how far we can go
Spread above the world our wings

Fly & be set free
Reach for the unknown
Love life, ourselves, each other
Discover & be shown

Achieve & be proud
Pass knowledge onto others
Learn from each day
Don't hide beneath your covers
