Life truly teaches us in ways manifold.

Transforming from an ebullient persona,

I seem to never find that point

beyond which I had lost that self permanently.

Withstanding the unforeseen downturns of life,

Roadblocks had never scared me.

My tears had dried up.

I was numb, clueless and only more lifeless.

As I recuperated,

I never knew I would keep falling for those ‘similar’ downturns,

For no particular reason of my calling.

Those scars that ripped my soul,

Made me doubt myself only more,

I was led into an unknown territory,

Where their remains still are fresh,

Yet unseen, unheard, unwitnessed and never revealed.
