UNTITLED POEMS BY DARAH


I've struggled so hard

Told myself I'm different

Until I realized the truth

Everyone is different

Different is the new common

We all tried so hard to stand out

We want to be noticed amongst the crowd

Yet, there's no exception

Not one at all

We all the same; diverse

Unfortunately, diverse is the new wrong

It's been dubbed racism

Yet, there's no exception

Even brothers are troubled

They've been made intolerant of one another

Just because of diversity

Christ made it clear

He came common

He wasn’t trying to be different

He never segregated

He's the son of God

Yet, you; yes, you

You think you're different

Think again

So this has been a journey of making mistakes and learning the hard way that the little things go a long way and what have you. I am not saying this to hate on him because he is still great, hands down. But do you know what could have been greater, he stepping down from his throne of greatness and helping someone else. That is the greater man. When he or she is self-made, or even when he or she is being  self-made, carries other people along with him or her. (Whew, that is a mouth-full or a brain-full😅) But that is that, you know? It will only get lonely at the top if you did not carry anyone along. So I know it took you years to get where you are. But it is time to start mentorin...

UNTITLED POEMS BY DARAH

Phobia… If he is scared, they say he's weak Peril… If he goes for it, they say he's stupid There's a fine line between valor and idiocy But who decides this; man? Absolutely not What if risking it is due to fear A man fears mockery, hence he urged on But he's confronted with insecurities He decided; he'd rather be in insecurities than be mocked He then succeeds in insecurities So, he's called brave Man has forgotten that once he's stripped off his acquisitions He would stand no more His crown will forever bow He wouldn’t be able to fight his phobia A man once secured, a man who thrived in the toughest times He goes into rage, he breaks down;  He falls into blankness Society says 'the brave and mighty has fallen' Or better still, they say he derailed Though, he was never brave; he wasn’t mighty He finally met his phobia                      by: Darah
