Sonnetina -Uniquely Mine

Many eyes of different color see images and give them meaning; reality is the clearest perception, which brings on its sweetness, and often an unacceptable bitterness: I have given these reflective eyes a choice and a challenge: to either accept or refuse when they were observing, to make conception uniquely mine... being that courageous soul uneffected by lies! Nothing that came out of these thoughts was ever imagined by someone else; everything that happened specified its reason, and analyzing events...magnified the scope of its revelation: all that this mind has poured out and revealed, or even failed to discern is uniquely mine! How foolish I would have been, if I hadn't been able to bring to completion what had already been decided by fate; another tragedy, and even more disappointment, to have stood by and watched others win! Every parade has some happy music and gleeful faces, and life glides along with the same rhythm and pace, it's up to us to show all the colors of our true intentions, and if we fail, we are pushed aside by a crowd which instills in its heart a zest that dignifies pride; so no matter how weak our ego gets and trust dwindles, we must make sure that hope is never is put by doubt... otherwise it becomes a useless dream without a concept! And deeply reflecting on this inevitable demise, I let go of all my susceptibility and retain what is uniquely mine! Numerous lives have been shattered by negligence and greed, mine has withstood all tests and declared its own, indisputable victory; and it wasn't won by avarice, but by deligence and ingenuity, to make all wonder how I was never taken down by this heavy load! What they needed was the strength to endure almost anything: jealousy, envy, injustice, evil, unfairness ,controversy and misery; I will not envision that famous figure being carved in marble, stone or brass, being put on the higest pedetal soon after his mourned death; if vanity were all I had pursued and fought for in my turbulent time, I couldn't have achieved my goal: to keep what is uniquely mine!
