I have observed and experienced that many times people feel trapped in roles that cause them to feel sad and empty. The surprising element is that some of the roles are meant to create happy and satisfying lives, but they don't. It's time to examine our lives and change or modify the roles that hold us back and don't allow us to enjoy our lives to the fullest within our unique circumstances.
It’s Time
I’ve been told by many to embrace life,
that I have the
power to
live my life the
way I want it to be,
not what others
say it should be.
Again and again
I have felt
confused, sad
& fictitious,
leading a life that
is often
empty and
lonely.
It’s over.
The time has
come to hang the
“Do Not Disturb”
sign
on the doorknob
of my heart
for everyone to
see.
It’s time to
discard the so-called
Master Plan of
my life
and concoct a
surprise about-face.
It’s time to
remove those leeches
who try to siphon
the little joy I have
by making me
feel guilty
for what is out
of my control.
It’s time to let
those others meet
the genuine me
who has been hiding
behind the
curtain of falsehood
in pursuit of
acceptance.
It’s time to
meet the me who will
try hard to embrace the ups and downs
of life and move
on,
perhaps slowly
and in a direction that is
not to
everyone’s liking,
but nonetheless,
moving on.
It’s time.
