Today, I wake up and see
A different person in me
A bit that was
A little alienated from me
But today I don’t disagree
And I accept it as it should be
Aren’t we all a little scared,
of things we are not aware of?
The things that are, Alien to us.
But are we even aware of ourselves?
Of the unexplored potentials in us.
And do we, know ourselves?
Often I surprise myself.
Being confined by the walls I create.
The walls that boil down
the moment I’m awake.
And I am left to ponder about
Is there really a wall?
The gigantic solid wall of limitations?
Or just thoughts that hold me,
hold me back.
How I’d believed I can’t achieve something beyond.
Just because it was something untold?
Wondering what resides on the other side.
And who makes it there?
Ones who are born on the flip side?
But isn’t that a wrong way to abide?
All of us are human after-all
And between our actions and our thoughts,
Aren’t we all off the wall?
So this time, I stepped out.
Out of my zone, and started to glide
Without waiting for the right moment to arrive
Unaware and unprepared,
I fell, once, twice,
But I get up and fly
Slashing the clouds of doubt
And it leaves me surprised
That I’m not damaged,
In-fact I enjoyed
Rising above my own heights
Estranged from my better self,
I had lost my sight.
Knowing your different sides,
It’s not something to avoid.
It made me stronger, knowing I had it in me
All I had to do was, dare
Dare to abide.
And I woke up today, to see
A different person in me
A bit that was
A little alienated from me
But today I didn’t disagree
I accepted my better self
As it should have been.
