Part Time Poet

PART TIME POET I tried to overtake a star Leaving behind the truth so far One of my biggest fear which I couldn't even bear Was to leave things I dear My passion my dreams To be heard they screamed But because of courage I lacked it all was in the vain I tried to remove this permanent stain And wanted to end this continuous pain But there was no gain I was a burning star Covered in a body full of scars Always desired to flow with the overwhelming tunes of a guitar As boundless as they are All I wished was to go with flow And to destroy my glow This was the only way they would accept me As their self desired boundary enclosed me I walked the path of astray Wasting my nights and my days I kept going the wrong way Soon my hopes started to decay I was lost But determined to achieve my goal at any cost I tried but kept failing In this phase of life my boat was not sailing Nothing was simple or straight I blamed it on fate I was depressed My goal was suppressed I think everyone is here to deceive And there's no one to believe

I absolutely love reading this marvelous piece of poetry from you, maybe the reason I like it too much is that it also defines my life but even after trying for three continues years and not even getting a single lead to work with, I still haven't given up and hope is all over me, if not today, tomorrow, if not tomorrow then surely one day. I see that you are new here, so I wish you a very warm welcome and I am sure that you will enjoy your time here, secondly good luck for the contest
