Do I Wait Back Poem by Aarti Mehra

Do I wait
Or dream on
Do I sing another's verses
Or write my own song

Do I hold back
On the things I want
Do I retreat
Or fight back each taunt

There's so much I think of
So much I'd like to do
Do I think only of myself
Or do I- wait back for a few

Life can be a mess
Full of work and struggles
But I'm a fool
To be stopped cause of any troubles

Cause Rome wasn't built in a day
But there was someone who started it all
In spite of all the troubles,
Someone did build that first wall

It's time I learn to take off
Time I learn to know what to do
Time I don't hold back
Not for the world- not anymore- it's true
