Is life unfair?
Looking for options
Without safe zones
I stumble on a journey
As exhilarating as the destination
Running the race
Enjoying the ride
Ruminating over the past
To plot my future
Experiences defining the path
Just keeping the head above the quicksand
Unconnected passions
Doing what comes naturally
Will I grow into a mountain?
Or shrink into a grain of sand?
Searching for the tag
That labels me consistently
Hearing the complaint
About that dormant trait
Hanging around for the long haul
To make it dormant rest of my life
Tuning my weakness
Camouflaging with strength
Is the act never ending?
Will the dream ever remain green?
Am I here for a purpose to fulfill?
Do you hear me my Lord?
Do I have to hitch myself in you?
Or you will bury thyself in me?

picking myself up...packing my bags for the journey stumbling, steadying but moving, constantly Going, going....carrying the burden of past searching for a destination to dump memories to erase the script and clean the slate, for this lifetime is coming to and end i must dump my onus where soul readies to dump this body! ! ! ! A excellent poem with some deep insights! ! ! ! ! ! !
Marvelous lines that capture part of our human condition: Doing what comes naturally Will I grow into a mountain? Or shrink into a grain of sand?
What an optimistic prayer to the Lord! May God grant your wish.
