Shweta Basu Prasad has penned down her deepest thoughts in the poem .
Mumbai: National award-winning actress Shweta Basu Prasad who made headlines for her alleged prostitution scandal, was recently released from a rescue home. The actress revealed that she didn’t turn to the flesh trade because of financial crisis, and the statements that were attributed to her were false.
During her two months in the rescue home, Shweta always tried to look at the brighter side of things and turned to poetry to cope with one of the darkest phases of her life.
Shweta's poem:
“Thunderstruck, all alone, I stand here at the edge of the cliff. I crawled the dense forest to get here. The tribes and wild and strays they say 'Jump, jump from the cliff.’ As I look down, naked, cold and trembling, The ferocious sea I see with its mouth open It’s ready to swallow me. The noises are unbearable the place so dark. As I decided to jump in the sea I saw the North Star. I remembered how it shone above my blessed home where singing hugging and laughter awaited me I said, 'Wait I want to go home.’ The voices murmured, 'End the journey.’ 'Jump! Jump you ugly thing.’ I smiled to them and pitied them, They don’t know I have wings.”
On a positive note, Shweta will resume the post-production work of her documentary project on Indian classical music.
