Scavenger

"Want to be alive today while my future is uncertain 
Scavenging is all my soul seaks" 
it was my Instagram status 
these words are meant to represent us 
nothing in this entire world would defines me truly 
because the vision , the question and the confusion I have cannot be expressed freely 
I always wanted to be at peace and wanted time to heal me 
but what if confusion ,uncertainty and stability is the real answer
you feel me?
why is the non existence of any Bond or attachment feels like home ,
it excites and thrills me 
I haven't found any word that can define this state other than 'Scavenger' 
it's like being a The Hulk 'a loner' but still sometimes ! an Avenger
you know what is the thing that makes me most scared ?
settlement, satisfaction, stability it is said !
everytime I look at a movie that ends with "happily lived Ever After !" 
It gets to my nerve , for me that's boring end of chapter 
such boring end is the last thing I want, I'll rather die after 
or maybe the real question is about the meaning of life 
when I think about it everything loses its importance like a blunt knife 
but still there is no answer to this question 
I tried to find it !! I am not lazy!! 
but the question itself is unclear, that drives me crazy !!
how can you find the answer if you don't know what you are finding 
how can you navigate if you don't know which vehicle you are riding 
how can you be so sure that society is right, that nothing is in the hiding 
how can I find out the real meaning of my existence because this thought is overwhelming and astounding 
Yeah ! I can hear myself Ishwar....... crazy I am sounding 
but let's find out what this life really mean 
not by thinking about it but by seeing the unseen 
let's be that wanderer , that Traveller, that dreamer 
the person who wants to know the truth about being Alive 
just a lonely SCAVENGER !
