I thought life has a lot of things to offer for those who could wait for bigger rewards. Well today, i realized that life doesn't work the way I supposed it wasn't I expected it to be, I discovered that Opportunities and Dreams are often attained by those who can afford one, rarely or even not reached by those whose lives are in so much hardship.I guess the world as I know it, is only an imagined world, reality is that the world is already preoccupied with people who continuously investing to protect one's position or dream, making others aspiration in life impossible. The world is unkind to new talents or ideas.It now destroyed my preconception of pursuing dreams in life. Last day, I've encountered a close person to mine, and we have a talk about dreams and aspirations, she told me to stop running after those dreams of mine and face reality, throw this baggage and look of what really is destined for me as a person who don't have the luxury to have anything, to be contended of what is just around and not look beyond what can be grabbed or pursued. It rocked me to my core. not because she's one of the closest person to me but because she might be right, that there is nothing for me out there, that I belong here, here in this hopeless place. A place for those who have nothing and will never have anything.
This is not really a poem, more of a narrative of life of mine.
