My Identity

A small poem about my identity as a Sikh and a Journalist

Sometimes I think about my life without a Sikhi Saroop (Sikh identity)

And then I am always like I would not be me

Then I choose this path and I have to live up to it.

People will talk shit,

Try to shut me off, lower my voice

But here I am telling the truth,

With my shoulder rising higher and higher,

Louder and prouder

No matter what the consequences are
