The Art of Resistance
Amid the chaos of life, there's a heartfelt realization of the necessity to break free from harmful cycles and face the challenges ahead. Within every struggle, there exists a flicker of hope, a reminder that growth and transformation can emerge from our trials. 🌱
The days I spent yearning and desiring,
Fighting for a vision, for a moment I’d be admiring.
I stood there, overly cautious, my own worst enemy,
It felt like a past life, something I could never truly see.
I told myself to rise, to take action,
Yet, I’d grown weary of my own distraction.
Isn’t that an irony?
I’ve squandered so much time, resenting myself for trying,
Spinning tales of comfort, when I knew I was lying.
I wasted time, plotting revenge on others,
With thoughts that smothered me, perplexing and full of blunders.
Inside
And I recognize, so I confront this new trial.
It’s a steep climb, should I leap, or is denial my style?
It’s my life, a continuous race, a survival cycle.
Isn’t that an irony?
“You’ve just saved me,” whispers echo in my head. 💭
Trouble in paradise, and the journey presses ahead.
In motion, at the very least, I must rise from my bed.
Regardless of your goals, remember, the sky’s the limit, superficial though it may seem.
Isn’t that an irony?
My coping strategy, the thrill of seeking hope,
Remains unchanged; I’ll lose myself on this slippery slope.
The treacherous edges persist, yet I’ll end the pain,
My fleeting thoughts resurface, an endless cycle that remains.
In the reflection of your actions, I see my own fears,
Chains of self-imposed limits, accumulated over the years.
Will you succumb to trials that seem never-ending?
Nay, defy the relentless, for strength is transcending.
With each step forward, defiance takes root,
In the face of adversity, resilience is the pursuit.
For within the struggle lies the essence of courage,
To rise, undefeated, from each challenging surge.
So do not let shadows of doubt cloud your view,
For in facing adversity, you welcome the light anew.
With every hurdle overcome, your spirit takes flight,
In the symphony of resilience, let your anthem ignite. 🦁
