When the hell will I feel like I've made it
When the hell will the torment stop
When the hell will this mud dry
When the hell will this let me go
Something happens that is wrong
Nothing happens that is also wrong
I'm ashamed, I'm guilty, I'm tired
I'm looking forward to find love...but why would anyone love me, I'm a boring little human with a boring little life with boring little stuff
I used to be a scholar in university, but now I'm not that anymore, I'm far from that
Why would anyone love me, I'm far behind those whom I used to be far ahead, I'm far behind those I used to be equal to, I'm far behind those whom I find as better than me
There are so many who are better, why would anyone even like a creature like me who used to be an idealist but now is a hollow shell, why would anyone give me their heart of flesh in exchange of my melting heart of plastic that used to beam with life but is now as good as dead.
I just left that one thing people had expectation from me with, that one thing that people were in awe of me with
That one job with no structure of office, for what, for something that has the illusion of a structure, that slow burn beginners work, what am I going to do with the structure when the value is low even after years after graduation and years of so-called employment
What will I do with this? How will I contribute? How will I be special, how will I be enough? Why would anyone love me, I never stepped into the world, I've seen the sea once only, I dance alone, sing alone, nobody claps for me, I'm literally nothing, just an existence, why would someone special love me?
Miles to go before I sleep
I've just started I know
A humble beginning, rather low
Just a few thousands, just a little capacity
So much to pour out, to show my ability
The ability doesn't match, the efforts don't hatch
Someone who never handled rejection
Someone who is buried under reflection
I'm doing well, so many more to do
So much time to spend, so many days to go
So many traumas, so many taunts
They yawn, in the lawn of my head, they haunt
So much to resolve, so much to carry, the weight keeps crushing
So much to handle, so far to go, such high to fly, blood keeps rushing
My head feels numb, blood-soaked heart is scorching dry
Every moment a wet dried clogged tear wants to burst out in a cry
I then smile, then I laugh, then I forget, then I sleep
Such a long way to walk, such a big map to keep
Miles to go before I sleep
About the Creator
Noshin Nisa
Wandering around the waves of my thoughts, trying to find the canoe of words to save me from drowning.
