"Search for my Tongue" by Sujata Bhatt explores themes of language, identity, and cultural assimilation. The poem delves into the experience of living between two languages, English and Gujarati, and the struggle to maintain one's mother tongue in a foreign environment.
The poet does feel as if she's losing her mother tongue, at the start of then poem, she refers to her mother tongue as "rot"-ing in her mouth, that she is losing it as she has moved and is having to learn a different 'tongue', but in the end of the poem she seems to be a peace with it as she realizes that she cannot forget her 'mother tongue' as it will always come back to her. It "blossoms out of her mouth".
