Obscure

Sometimes I sit on my loneliness In a place full of quietness and Listen as my heartbeat to the rythm of time And dream that one of the days A voice trapped in my inside Will come out as loud as thunder To make a sudden impact To be admired by the whole world And free me from this Prison of obscurity I sit there and wonder If really the talent I possess Is the right weapon To hunt for this desired success And start to feel my confidence Repelled by demoralizing thoughts And feel myself a tiny star tiny enough not to be seen Yet I do not stop dreaming Of one day being freed from this prison of obscurity

wow,this poem is so relatable. I feel like this too sometimes. The dream to become famous for what we do!! You are a very good writer, Bojosi. One little suggestion for this poem: use "sit" for "seat" (sit is the verb) I hope to read more and more of your beautiful poems. LUv, Andrea

There are times we all experience self-doubts, but don't let them stand in the way of pursuing your goals. It's just the nature of life, Bojosi. A great poem to which we can all relate. Thanks for your comments on my poem. Best wishes, Carolyn
