There lies profound beauty in this uncertainty
There lies profound beauty in this uncertainty,
Untamed decisions often take the mind by storm.
For within me, resides a constant state of perplexity.
Walking without purpose, bare feet in this robust city,
Suddenly reminds of a naked, vulnerable form.
There lies profound beauty in this uncertainty.
This stage fright wants to take over my sociality,
Making me anxious every time I am asked to perform.
For within me, resides a constant state of perplexity.
Old memories resurface, giving rise to my anxiety.
Inexplicable rush of adrenaline makes the heart warm.
There lies profound beauty in this uncertainty.
A sign of light appears as if it was fed up of my complexity,
Yet there arises an insurmountable pressure to conform.
For within me, resides a constant state of perplexity.
Maybe it’s time to succumb to a wavering reality,
Along with a deep desire to defy the norm.
There lies profound beauty in this uncertainty.
For within me, resides a constant state of perplexity.
