Notes About The Poem

Introspection

Introspecting myself in the mirrors reflection of 
Never-ending constricting struggle from sunrise to the insomnia at night
The dawn arise and it is still continuing in the silence of the day 
Remembering who I am, a caring woman full of life 
Often not knowing where I am, I am here in a universe full of 
Struggles try to figure how did I get here?  A
Puzzle piece that hasn’t yet found its place in my life.
Educated, but feel childlike an inadequate or just a shadow of what I wish to be
Capricious to what I want to do NOW! In which I should be patient
Time will tell in constructing a narrative out of random events.
Is it all about how human beings react , a believer or misanthropist?
Observing myself in life and open my heart to hope
Not allowing anything to stop me  in the goals of my life
