Oh look, another day has arrived,
"Time's arrow marches forward my friend"
Wonder if I should take the same path for the drive,
"But there is no other trail for you that I can recommend."
I run blindly down the street, occasionally stopping to catch a breath,
"You stop too often, success is harder to attain this way"
But the fatigue feels like it could bring about my death,
"You have no choice but to get with the rhythm and sway."
Oh, get me out of this tragedy, I am wasting away my youth,
"Once you have given it your all, better days will be in plenty"
But a day off from this mundane life is something I could use,
"There's no stopping now, rest when you are fifty."
It feels like my mornings and nights are blending into one,
"Hustle now and happiness will come at your doorstep"
I have to compose myself for this unsparing run,
"That is the spirit because this road is endless."
---------------------------------------------------------
"I often find myself building endless empires of hopes and dreams in my head, only to have them abandoned and forgotten in the face of reality."
I have been so busy with my studies and it made me stray away from writing. But with a new year and with many new resolutions, I hope to be consistent and explore more of this wonderful world of literature.
This is a conversation between my mind and my heart. The pressure on students to succeed is downright cruelty but what choice have we got?
Hope you like this. Wish you a good day.💐
