A noisy world often makes me forget the bliss of silence,
With a heady approach, I give in to confusion, miss out on resilience.
Insisting on my own truth, I hardly pay heed to the truths of others,
Forgetting that each has a truth to share, from Prince to pauper.
Competition and comparison, two viles, only vex me to stoop low,
Other’s glory is not my glory, feel the cynical me, hollow.
I decline to salute the real heroes of mundane life,
Who with diligence, strive for lofty success, cornering strife.
I am a more cautious professional than being familial,
Setting aside the aesthetics, I tried more often the world, material.
Dark and negative musings destroy me bit by bit,
Bereft of positive vibes, I am jittery, ever ready to quit.
An uncouth mind, so full of turmoil and turbulence,
Surrounded by loved ones, I fail to experience love’s opulence.
Hightime, I redress myself with correction and reevaluation,
Look up to God, to rise in me, to guide me for my resurrection.
Therefore, fine-tuning my entangled, messy thoughts,
Reestablishing my fragile bond with God, my Saviour,
In whatever form may I visualize or realize my Creator.
Without inhibitions, I surrender to The Almighty for retribution,
Confessing my wretched thoughts, I seek atonement, for ultimate salvation.
