What a Joke!
I told myself I wouldn't write anymore,
But inspiration struck, and words began to pour.
What a joke, I didn’t know I'd catch a cold desire,
In creativity's icy depths, my soul just caught fire.
My heart's ablaze in a foreign world, destiny conspired,
In life's grand adventure, my spirit will be unwired.
Unique at the grip, I'm directed to give sensational slips,
Amid challenges faced, I'll never lose my grip.
With each twist and turn, I'll aim even higher,
Determination strong, fuels my inner fire.
Misplaced determination, borrowed confidence from moments faced,
Though moments may wane, resolve can't be erased.
I didn't think I was the best, okay,
Compliments out the door, no ego to sway.
No humble feature, I allowed my hurts to be told out of horror,
Not seeking the spotlight, I quietly explore.
Through vulnerability, my true self I implore,
I know you may not want to read anymore, but please, a little more.
I promise my words you’ll remember, like a tale in folklore,
In this digital world, our connection to be adored.
