An Ode To My Aspirant Life
Think out of the box, they said.
Get out of comfort zone, they nay'd.
Stand out from the crowd, that herd.
Achievement is just a mere definition.
It differs with how you see, I see, we see.
I was directionless, searching for my sole purpose.
Just get into that ring and win.
With no clue on what the prize should it be.
Life had its ups and downs, I thought
But there was always a middle where you get stuck.
Going in circles, stuck in the infinite loop.
The more I start, the closer to the win.
I was chasing tails, going nowhere.
There isn't always a black and white I realized.
There's a grey, the invisibility cloak.
That color that isn't desired, so dull it may seem.
It carries the untold story, of hope and despair.
How I hug myself to console how far I have come, yet not too close.
One day, when I gave up on what meant so much,
Why did it feel lighter and peaceful?
I look back at the person who I were before,
I am sure she would be proud of who I became after.
Even when I lost, the path for me was clear.
I am still directionless but still,
I know which track I wouldn't venture into.
Till then, you can meet me halfway,
Playing into the mid-woods,
Breathing in and breathing out every slices of
What life has to offer, swimming in its ebbs and flows,
Carrying me into the unknown grey waters
Knowing all too well, I will come out stronger
In different better versions of me.
Yet a piece of me would carry that aspirant life
As a sign that I atleast tried and almost made it.
