Inner Struggles

I stand Isolated
I wreak of defeat
Yet,I'm still fit
Stiff but swift

Undeniably persistent
but stubbornly indifferent
Child of Karma
Over-whelmed by my forebears acts

I crawled into crossroads
not on my own accord
but here i am
Here,i find my feet

Showered by the yield
Inspired by the good
Stunned by the dark
Easy a choice it seems

Why then do i waiver?
when its in black and white
bu neither colour suit me
On this fence i'll remain

the differences in color black and white yellow and red and whatever is so racially meaningless - we all live in one world of multiple colors expressed in multiple ways that will forever be expressed in multiple styles. we need to maintain diversity - universal acceptance of each other and follow the teachings of Gandhi and Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Keep writing and working and dont doubt yourself. there are growing numbers of followers all over the world.
