America Frasier lives in a world created twenty years ago by the smartest people in the world. It was supposed to engineer a world of perfection. Flawlessness. Except that it the fourteen years since the new generation was born, America as one of them, there have been several reoccurring glitches. Glitches that distrust the veil of reality and idealism.

"The Strive" is a deeply introspective journey through the pursuit of perfection and the yearning that follows. In a world where desires collide with the limitations of the self, the poem explores the cyclical nature of longing, the elusiveness of dreams, and the unspoken ache of striving for an ideal that forever slips through our fingers.

Adem, a quiet, observant high school senior, is growing up in a culturally conservative Muslim household in a mostly white, suburban American town. To his peers, he's the guy dating Lexie Brighton-sweet, popular, and "safe." But the relationship is performative. Lexie is more image than intimacy, and Adem is exhausted by pretending. At school, Adem plays along with Islamophobic jokes and nicknames like "Terrorist Tom Brady" to protect himself from deeper isolation. At home, he's caught between a reserved father who prefers silence, a protective mother who disapproves of his relationship, and two sharp sisters who see through him-especially Mariam, his whip-smart, eye-rolling younger sister. The story's emotional shift begins when Adem shares a quiet, unexpected kiss with Danny, a longtime friend and artist who's open about his sexuality and calm in ways Adem envies. The kiss doesn't answer all of Adem's questions-it just cracks open the internal tension he's worked hard to suppress. After this moment, Adem begins to unravel. He grows distant from Lexie. He lingers longer in front of the mirror, starts caring more about how he presents himself, and begins questioning everything-his faith, his relationships, his future. He doesn't come out, but he starts becoming. Danny doesn't push for clarity or commitment-he simply stays nearby, offering steady friendship. Adem tries to reconnect with faith, but struggles to pray. He's ashamed to talk about his feelings with his parents. He stops going to parties with Lexie. He isolates himself before slowly, tentatively, seeking truth. As graduation approaches, Adem watches his peers embrace nostalgia he doesn't share. Later, in the empty gym, Danny asks: "Wanna sneak out?" Adem says yes.
