You're a Warrior, aren't You?
It's been months since I posted my first and last article entitled "Ask to Unmask". I was at my hectic schedule those times, doing our thesis for outline defense. But now, I decided to be active in here again. And I just wanna share a poem written by me, that I happened to scribble based on my own instinct that also conformed with timely issue at that moment. And it goes like this:
You're a Warrior, Aren't You?
We are clump of warriors
on this chaotic battlefield,
But would you consider
a typical someone as one?
When he's cladded with fear
became hopeless enough
to fight and just chose to run?
When he's been devoured
by selfishness and greed
merely to gloat and succeed?
Being with this gallant throng
is like defending a fortress,
But what if envy and hatred
would tore the bond apart?
That they just choose to asunder
unbosoming thorns one owns
rather battling in unison?
That they tend to plot of crashing
and crumpling each other
than deafeating enemies together?
It doesn't always mean to have
rigid swords and sturdy shields,
for us to be called a bold warrior.
It's not the flesh but the spirit,
It's not being alone with own wit,
But to have someone to grip with.
Unleash the soul of gallantry
Meld it with an authentic charity
And if this is indeed a battlefield,
can you call yourself a warrior sweetie?
So how's the poem? I'd like to hear some feedbacks from you about it. It's all about, when you are in the verge of the crossroads of struggles or confusion, it's not bad to reach out sometimes. Ask for help instead of escaping from it. Battling alone does not always define strength, sometimes it's when you have people or even just a certain someone who's always and will always stay with you no matter how hard the situation is, and will fight together with you. So if you have those people and certain someone in your life, thank them for they are blessing in disguise .

True, Battling alone doesn't define how strong a person is, the poem is wonderful, and if there are the only words that get into my head, it's worth a lot.
