Recently I have had many talks with my parents about the direction my life is taking. I have gone from the guy expected to pursue his masters in a computer related field, to the guy who only talks about doing art; like going into cinema, writing, making music, graphic design and the likes. My mother has told me to pray against the spirit of confusion in my life chuckles.
Truth be told I am slightly confused, I have many things i want to do but how to go about it is not something i have completely figured out yet, and doubts have crept in about the validity of my dreams.
This poem was inspired by the doubts and confusion.
Have you ever been sure, like absolutely sure about what you want from life?
Have you ever had a plan that you believed in with no doubts in sight?
I am a man of many doubts, they have become to me like a badge
I’m never sure of anything; my gut points me in too many directions
So I seem lost and confused to those who don’t understand my intentions
It’s alright to be misunderstood, not everyone would get you
Just don’t seek their approval, because they’ll never let you
Be who you are under the mask, an impurity in the façade
It’s okay to be confused, when there’s too much to choose
Life doesn’t come with a guide, and there’s so much to decide.
