A Paradox of Being
To be normal, a quiet glow,
A life where no storms may show.
Yet deep within, a fire burns bright,
A longing to stand out in the light.
Born unique, in a brilliant flare,
Chained by dreams, by the world’s stare.
A sigh for peace, for the mundane,
A simple life, free from fame’s strain.
The heart desires, to always change,
What is absent feels close, yet strange.
The unknown calls, a whisper, a plea,
A maze of longing, endlessly.
But at the core of every voice,
Lies a truth, a timeless choice.
Normal or special, it matters not,
Embrace yourself, for all you've got.
So be normal, be unique, be free,
A paradox of being, for you to see.
In simplicity or splendor, your soul finds might,
A radiant life, crafted in your light
