Stage one was over…The next stage was my destination
The world unfolded itself, beating my imagination....
Leaving the comfort hurts, I felt alone in the pack
There’s so much to learn and so few to pat....
I felt shaky, confused and earthy
Amongst the crowd, I had to find someone worthy....
I looked around, who ever came my way I made them my own
Alas it was a mistake, for I had to test the unknown....
Slowly I shed my shell, took up challenges
Look I am growing now, n now I am off my hinges....
The challenges gave me conviction and belief
Now I can correct the wrong n that has brought me peace....
The new ones understand me n let me be ME
I am happy now and I feel free....
Its not like all the old ones are gone
I have clung to those I thought I belonged....

PS- Its Abstract yet very personal :)
