My Wavering Self

I had plans for my future, Was so sure would never falter Working hard towards achieving it So sure it was just around the corner People believed that I would Really sure that I would complete what I began. But one day something happened That I never thought would ever happen Moreover would never let it happen to me Now I am a wavering wreck I don’t believe what has become of me Really thought I had everything under control. But things have spun out of my grasp I want to believe that this is just a phase Am desperate for it to be over Though I also wish & pray for it to be real And prove every negative what I once believed To be outright wrong and justify That what has happened to me is true and real.
