Oh how i wish I could speak these words to you… Spoken word is the one poetic activity I haven’t satisfactorily indulged myself in just yet. There’s so much power in spoken words but I guess we’ll just have to make do for now…. I hope you like this poem:
GROWING
Growing is hard
But it’s necessary
It’s not exactly fun without a silver spoon
A plastic one will do though
_________
Whoever said growing was necessary?
Whoever said it wasn’t?
Whether or not we choose to grow is all up to us
In wit and weight
In strenght and constraint
__________
But then, without growth
We are dead
Dead to the world
So we can do nothing but Grow
Manage to grow
Grow to flourish
********* Fini
Constant growth is the one thing we can’t do without. Your ability to grow irrespective of all the stunting factors around you puts you at an advantage. Life will hit u at the place where you feel most vulnerable, but when you know to make an upward/forward shift towards positivity, when those travails come, they wont meet you vulnerable…. be happy.
