Reality Scares

Hey guys this is a poem about...well life in itself. Sometimes it can all be a bit overwhelming and at times like that I think all we can do is keep trying.

try to be good, try to succeed, try to be amazing.

we don't need to be terrified because someday we will touch the sky. :)

Reality Scares

Do you always catch yourself staring at the stars?

Because you don't know how to hide those scars?

Somehow you are stuck where you are

And the finish line is still pretty far.

You scream, you push

It's all just a rush.

You just want to cross that bridge

Lunge and jump off that ledge

But what do you do?

Where do you go?

Do you look upto the skies

Or down to the lies?

Is it easier to fake it

Or braver to face it?

It's terrifying to be lost

But it's fearsome to be real!

The world's a big place,

With big people who always ace

I'm a little shy, a little quiet

Maybe I'm too polite?

Or maybe I'm too bright?

All I know is it's going to be a fight,

A fight between me and I,

Between staying put and touching the sky.

Until it's time for me to succeed,

Time for me to take the lead.
