In the dim light of my room, I sit surrounded by walls adorned with posters of places I’ve never been and dreams I’ve yet to chase. The whispers of the world outside—friends laughing, the hum of traffic—echo through the window, reminding me of the noise of expectations and the weight of reality pressing in. The mirror reflects a face still searching for identity, a teen caught between the innocence of childhood and the daunting horizon of adulthood.
I wrestle with the shadows of my own doubts, the unspoken fears of never being enough. My parents’ well-meaning advice often feels like chains, binding me to paths I don’t want to tread. They don’t understand the music that speaks to my soul, the art that pours from my hands, the stories I want to tell. I dream of being a voice in the crowd, of making a difference, but sometimes it feels like shouting into the void. The weight of unfulfilled potential sits heavy on my shoulders, and I wonder if I’ll ever find my way.
And so, I write—my pen, my sword against the darkness. In these lines, I find myself, shedding the skin of who I’m supposed to be to discover who I am. As the night deepens, a verse comes to mind: “In the quiet storm within, I seek the eye of peace, to stand tall amidst the chaos and let my true self release.”
