Today happens to be my birthday and I am glad to be witnessing a brand new age. This poem highlights my story so far. Read and drop kind words.
No luxury as dreamed of
Fewer friends unlike before
Nothing static brings food to the table
The only thing longed for is a desire to be happy
But this should have been that age
Where momma should have been made proud
Where more than half of life goals should have been met
Where what to worry about should not have been what to eat
This should have been that age
Where one has a clear direction for one’s life
where ranking few millions should have been seen as normal
But life humbles everyone at the end
Lofty expectations targeted could become an uphill
Difficult to attain even and most times scary to attempt
Even when all is attained, life could do its worst and cut one life’s short
Still clueless about what next
The only thing crystal clear at the moment
Is that I have a family and good friends
Ready to help me walk through this journey called life
