My Reality

Kevin Majozi 2000 (Gaborone)



I have no identity
I have no ambition
I am a lost soul
Wandering aimlessly in the journey called life
I desire purpose
I desire courage
Courage to take the first step towards a new life
A better life
I am filled with envy
Envy towards those who know what they want to be
Those who can easily find joy in even the smallest things
Those who know what love feels like
I want to feel the way they do
I want the lives they have
I want to know how it feels to love and be loved
I thought i had no ambition
I thought i had no identity
But the truth is
I just did not want to believe that this is who i am
I just did not want to believe that this is my reality
