There are times in life when you feel alone
loosing even your shadow to the dark
the winds of life shake your foundation
swaying you in all directions
unsure, which gust might take you down
unsure, of the direction
in which might your grave open
and assimilate all that's left;
You question all you believed in till now
your rock shakes, your fragments tremble
as if a tsunami, an earthquake
of uncertainties, a shallow
ready to engulf you, drown
you in all you behold close and dear
in these echoes, in this chaos
it gets almost impossible
to recognize even your own voice
shaky and trembling,
how do you challenge life
how do you prove yourself
- Are you enough to challenge life?
But Darling,
it is when you are alone
that you have the chance
to be the best version of yourself
so let not the fear of tomorrow hold your reins
or the memories of yesterday hold you slave
live your today unafraid of the swings
embrace yourself and jump off the cliffs
for you can't soar if you are afraid to fly
Darling,
you can't rule if you don't give it a try!
