Bigger Than Myself

BIGGER THAN MYSELF When thoughts cease to flow where does ego go blowing bubbles of illusion! Creating confusion. All along tried to pull the trigger to hit the bigger personality than mine, so that I can adore, I can admire, I can depend on a genuine adviser My idol, my mentor to venture free in thorny journey of life. I regret not to meet one in my familiar zone. Searched and searched in vain only to rue. Though true, interacted lot not few. If seemed bigger from far, coming close got shocked to look at small aperture. All around small pebbles rolling stumbling, mountain not to reach. In the last phase I had to realize silhouette of ill fate overshadowed me, being bigger than myself. 02/02/19 Third Place Re-edited on 05/10/22 ‘Bubbles of Illusion’ Contest by Unseeking Seeker
