Destiny ? What is Destiny ? One question , And one answer , But such a difficult one , Who holds the key ? To unlock this mystery , What happens after ? Fulfilling our destiny , All strange questions , Bewildering people's minds , Giving crazy answers , Answers that can be , Either true , Or false , How should we know ? Is your destiny , Within your eyes ? From the moment of birth ? Or achieved later ? Is there an answer ? To these puzzling questions , How far do we look ? Being young , I cannot place a lid , On my anxiety , And never ending curiosities , What will transpire ? On my path to destiny , This is my fear , My curiosity , And should be yours .
Reason for writing:
Well I usually think too much . I wrote this poem when i was in India , just this year in August . I was sitting in the balcony and just wondered what my future will be like then and there . Of course i thought about my future before I was in India but I never had the poetic language to express what i was feeling until i was there . After coming back from India to Ireland so many things have altered my mind and i think about so many people that I miss . I just wondered what my position would be like in another three years as i am only 18 . I still have to go to third level in January . Among this other worries . So I cannot really go to bed without thinking and worrying to much for about one hour . I don't know if this is good or bad being so much aware and thinking too much . For me it has helped me change myself . So really this poem is about me wondering what my future will be like . Not just for me but I am sure that many young people out there feel the same as well . So anyway if anyone feels my way , please reply . I would love to know what your views are on this delicate matter .
