How hard adulthood had hit you?
Maybe the metamorphosis to creature with thick skin around your heart.
It always acted as a buffer to protect myself from the pains and taunts of the world.
You may exist in a different timeline compared to your friends, Enslaving your life in front of the blue screens.
People may consider you foolish and aimless for following your dreams.
Loosing bits and pieces that you have always held close to your heart.
The voyage from one Pit stop to another to find what's right for you.
Keeping your stride ahead in your uncertainties and darkness.
Unseen and unheard by the world. Striving to hold a patch of cloud in your heart.

Brilliant!
forgive me dear Poet, I couldn't help
scribble a few words as reply
to express what your words
inspired in me, thank you!
(Some poetry is purposed
to transport us and have us
gliding
above linguistic or imagery's
creative clouds
then, some poetry
grounds
our arrow impeded ankles
'like Achiles'
deeper
in our quicksand's or bequeathed circumstances
of fate
reawakening those bruises, we strive
to keep suppressed, deep within
and in reading
our most hidden truth's, being poetically
expressed and distilled
to resonate with us so accessibly
comforts us and offers us
that seed of inspiration
to question:
if we're not the only ones sharing
this accursed
trials and tribulations in life
maybe
there's a path, a window of opportunity
for us, too
to survive and someday
ink something, by deed or word
that others may relate to, so instinctively
and thus, our life's story
may make that Ulysses
'metempsychosis' dream
a reality, as a mantra
for realising the Phoenix potential
we all harbour
to reinvent ourselves and curate
what happy-ever-after
we may be afforded by fate..)
