It’s a lot to say what life is,
Life is living,
A tutor,
It’s overwhelming,
A cycle filled with phases of movements and moments
Fun moments,
Sad moments
My life tries to propagate fear
And act as an antagonist to my fairytale
I realized that to live, I had to isolate my fears
So, I cut off its feathers
And deprived it from flourishing
I gave hope,
With enormous capacity,
Without restrictions
This hope is independent,
Bountiful,
Brightened,
Positive,
Captivating,
Enticing,
Envious of those whose prosperity is based on desperation
This hope creates jealousy
This hope is plentiful
It undermines pain
Defies artificial making
This hope is permanent
This hope does not stutter
This hope is explicit
I do not give a definite ending to my journey
A writer propels forward in creation
And I am still in this,
Creating a masterpiece
Maybe not perfection
But at the end,
I will have hope to thank for
Maybe I can call myself a new creation,
As I have conquered LIFE itself,
and what's more empowering than that...
