Indelible Musings

That moment when I sit and wonder, Where am I headed? I struggle to come to a conclusion, I cry and whine at my inability To see the strength in me, All I can see is the pile of defeat The unsuccessful attempts The mismanaged life cycle The surmounting debts. That moment when I sit and contemplate How I should focus on the present And forget the future But, Alas! The future has Caught me in its web Entangled, and without a sign of freeing, I struggle to pull out of the web The intensity with which the web has woven itself around me makes me shudder. That moment when I sit and decide It's time to call it the end of the road No, there hasn't been a speck of Light at the end of this dark road I tried, I struggled, I fought, I caught But I failed, Failed quite miserably. I fear, I fear the society, I fear the people I love, I fear my own self, I guess it is THAT MOMENT When I should quit...

So they say, quit and sit back, it isn't your day; I say then when will it be if not today? Shedding all inhibitions, I embark on a new road. I walk two miles, only to witness a giant rock blocking my way; So they say, it's time you tread on the return path. I refuse to look back, climbing the rocky terrain, beads of sweat trickle down my forehead, I keep up with the pace, a thorn pierces the skin on my toe, So they say, it's time for me to abandon all that I had begun. Abandon was a word, I had never heard before, fighting back with zeal, was always what I was told, Yet they said, gone is your time, so is your luck, so is your chance, Why hold on to things that you shall never pass?
