I stand where I keep dreaming, I linger, a silent spectator to the relentless dance of life's fleeting opportunities. Each day, I weave through a labyrinth of shattered dreams, haunted by the echoes of my futile attempts to grasp success. With every sunrise, hope flickers briefly before extinguishing into the abyss of despair.

I call for help where I am but a wanderer in the desolate landscape of my own mind, where the specter of failure looms large, casting a pall over every endeavor. Countless nights have been spent wrestling with the demons of doubt and inadequacy, their whispers drowning out the feeble voice of resilience within me.

The world outside moves at a frenetic pace, a symphony of achievements and accolades that seem forever out of reach. Each milestone reached by others serves as a cruel reminder of my own stagnation, a testament to the chasm that separates me from the elusive pinnacle of success. Not everything is possible. Keeping up with the pace of the world is impossible. Chances.... Near zero.

I have fought battles that no one else can see, the scars of which run deeper than any physical wound. The weight of expectations crushes me beneath its unforgiving burden, leaving me gasping for air in a suffocating embrace.

Suicidal thoughts whisper seductively in the recesses of my mind, offering an escape from the relentless cycle of disappointment. They promise respite from the ceaseless striving and the crushing weight of unfulfilled ambitions. Yet, even in the darkest depths of despair, a flicker of defiance remains—a stubborn refusal to surrender to the void.

I am a symphony of contradictions, a fragile soul forged in the crucible of adversity. Beneath the veil of despair lies a glimmer of hope, however faint—a beacon of resilience that refuses to be extinguished.

For each setback is not a testament to my inadequacy, but rather a stepping stone on the path to redemption. I may stumble and fall a million times, but with each fall, I rise anew, strengthened by the fire that courses through my veins.

Though the road ahead may be fraught with uncertainty and despair, I refuse to succumb to the siren song of surrender. For within the depths of my despair lies the seed of resilience—a flickering flame that refuses to be extinguished.

And so, I press on, a solitary figure in a world consumed by its own ambitions. For even in the darkest of nights, there exists a glimmer of hope—a beacon of light to guide me through the labyrinth of despair towards the dawn of a new day.

In the dimly lit room, she sat, hunched over her desk, surrounded by crumpled papers littering the floor like fallen leaves in autumn. Each failed attempt lay before her, a testament to her relentless pursuit of success. Yet, despite countless efforts, it remained an elusive dream, slipping through her fingers like grains of sand.
She is me.....

Her mind, a battleground of despair, echoed with the whispers of self-doubt and worthlessness. The weight of expectations pressed down on her fragile shoulders, suffocating her spirit with every breath. She longed to break free from the chains of inadequacy, to soar above the clouds of uncertainty and taste the sweet nectar of achievement.
She is me....

But try as she might, success remained a distant mirage, taunting her with its elusive allure. With each passing day, the shadows grew darker, swallowing her hopes whole and leaving behind only the hollow shell of a shattered dreamer.
She is me.....

In moments of desperation, she found herself standing on the precipice of oblivion, teetering on the edge of despair. The thought of ending it all beckoned like a siren's song, promising an escape from the relentless agony of failure. Yet, even in her darkest hours, a flicker of hope remained, a tiny ember struggling to ignite the flames of resilience within her fractured soul.
She is me.....

Through tear-stained eyes, she gazed upon the stars, their twinkling lights a reminder of the infinite possibilities that lay beyond the confines of her despair. In that moment, she realized that success was not measured by the number of failures endured, but by the strength of the spirit that refused to surrender.
She is me....

With newfound determination, she picked herself up from the depths of despair, brushing aside the remnants of her shattered dreams. Armed with courage and resilience, she set forth once more into the unknown, ready to face whatever challenges lay ahead.
She is me.....

For she was not defined by her failures, but by the unwavering tenacity of her spirit. And though the road ahead may be fraught with obstacles, she would forge onward, guided by the light of hope that burned brightly within her heart.
I wish she wasn't me...

One question curling up my insides.....
After everything why am I still not enough?
