A single
wish floating through time,
I keep close
to my chest the future that is mine.
This gap signifies
another day.
In the
shade, you start to fade away.
I keep my
arms ridged by my side
The distance
is becoming wide
There is no
point to have pride.
Why was I at
peace when the world left its scars?
Letting go,
when that wish could be ours.
Move on, you
can go to your dreams
But my heart
is ripping from the seams.
No one can
keep your will at bay.
So I stay,
while you go back away.
In your eyes,
I see your subtle pain
But I try to
contain
Why fly
towards what I can’t attain?
How do we suppose
to know how life plays out?
Everyone
goes down their separate route.
People can’t
always be by your side.
You have to
be your own guide.
The wish echoes
boundlessly in the sky
Pursue, this
shall be our last goodbye.
Go on, there
is no time to grieve.
Then maybe I
will still believe.
Sort of a response to me not having dreams or aspirations while others seem to have something. Though I may not have any now I hope I have some later, so that is why I ended on a semi-happy note because I do believe people can pursue their dreams. This is what happens when school doesn't give me work to do. I feel like Anh feels, that there must be something looming because that is what we are trained to feel. The shame of doing nothing, why do I have that but not the shame of having no dreams? Time to go block this sense of helplessness and have some fun.
It's okay to not have any dreams or aspirations right now. Not everyone knows what they want for the future or what they hope to achieve. The way you've grown up kind of hasn't allowed for you to have dreams. But I believe that someday you'll find something that's worth it. Even if you don't find anything, that's okay. You may not have a dream or an aspiration but you might be helping someone create their own without even realizing it.
ReplyDelete"People can't always be by your side/You have to be your own guide" <--- It's taken me so long to understand that. Do you know who made me finally understand that?
