Tell me where to go, let me know where is the place I will grow. Show me your plan and help me to make it done.
Sincerely,

They tell you to let go of your past
So you stumble & instead stress about your future
They tell you to live in the present
So you live care-free & adopt the sloth culture

They tell you to force yourself to be happy
So you go out and drink one too many
They yell at you to keep your eye on the prize
So you force quit all your feelings, be it any

It's more than okay, we are always learning
This is how we process things, this is how we change
But once try telling yourself, to embrace all that's returning
Because perfection is attained only by the truly deranged

Did you encounter doing something however you don’t know why you have to? Asking yourself if you’ll fit together with those individuals who had picked that path and you left hanging to the question “What do I want?”

Elderly folks says follow what you want because that’s the only way to revel hardships of your life. (Obviously because you wanted what you are doing)

But what can elders says when you are doing things that you don’t know if you want it or should I say that isn’t the thing you are into.

That the reason you are there is because you have no other choice but to choose someone’s choice or else suffer to nothing.

They left you no other options but to accept the fact that you have to deal with it.

In the midst of my coming of age,
I lost myself.
What was once a one-way street is now a crossroad in the heart of the fields.
24 eyes staring at me from all directions,
waiting for my next step,
I'm waiting for my next step.
There are no signs of where the paths will go
nor signs of how much miles the road was
but I'm letting my heart take the lead.
For in the midst of the trip or maybe at the end of the road I know,
I will find myself again.
This is what I was feeling when I was so sure of my career path but new things came.
Weep for me
And for all I could have been
And wanted to be
But please don't waste your tears
Weeping for someone
That I never wished was me

That keep me too busy to write
are mere survival mechanisms
but not careers to me...
those won't see me for long
after all poetry's my life...
I'm made for words and so
I refuse to get caught up
making a living without
living my make...

A CV's like a baby, it has to
first sit before it crawls and
then it stands before it walks...
step by step till it's grown
and too fat for its
bearer to carry.
Some skip a stage,
but such a miracle's
rare even in the
professional
and business
world.

Career is calling me,
Ringing for several times.
My thumping heart says,
"These're your dreams, why not give it a try?"
Lingering deep down on my marrows,
An illusion of deception,
An escape to higher dimension.

Yes, I want to be who I wanna be,
But when not in Christ, it'd be a shattered me.

Calling isn't ringing at all,
But he's bumping down my inner soul.
He's not my type but there's something in him.
That waiting becomes a rest that's a prerequisite.
I'd required so much for myself;
At times, rest becomes a chapter to close
I'd to wipe every single misfortunes of old
I'd rather face this moment of yes to His call.

Praying to God led me to found the key,
The gist to a rebel who's vault is in an alley.
Dreams of old, faults of such degree
Of burnt, unwrapped -- an ambushed stealing of me.

"What have you done?"
One voice tamed the thousands,
Bring halt the aphonic mimics of who's legit.
Found myself showered w/ crystal-clear tears.

Awaken, tattooed the psyche of self;
Trashes became a view, floating with the unrest ocean.
I hear no breeze nor its whispering fears,
But fear itself, a coated-candy of trampled gears.
