FINDING YOURSELF -CONTEST
Too many sides of me, some sides discarded now
bits and pieces dispersed across places lived
sides of carelessness, impatience and ego
each side outwitting the other
added toppings of sensitivity and moodiness
a layered crust of damage crystallized.
Inundated with bursting negativity
stress enthusiastically perched and nested
multiple choices available
aches and pains using body as an Airbnb.
Sunk in debris trenches deep,
soot covered ounces of me
gasped for therapeutic scrubs to exfoliate.
Relentless inability to sort myself out
tested many Google quacks.
Times loathing the garbage accumulated
at times, relief for picking a new trail.
Gaping at shocking footprint
of inner frailties
learning to be with myself
discerning the real me.
Trudging, unlocking life's riddle with different keys
few priceless carved keys added to my bunch.
Appreciation for the tortoise, whose pace
mimicked unfastened a me, unaware of.
Each new day, a search of me by me.
