Phases 2.0

I was small, I thought I'm gonna be alright

Never thought I'm gonna pass through that ugly site

I remember how I was pushed to lose that winning fight

Growing age taught me,"slow down! troubles are at height"

I panicked but I knew, Every day comes after night

But I've started to get confused now, doubting every bite

Don't know if the key's silence or fighting for my right

My story seems now blank, not even black just white !

Back then, when I was a kid, I was happy flying kite

Even now I've got the brain but it's useless without might

Bearing suffering ensures me a thing—my future's bright

Author's Notes;

A glimpse into the dark tunnel of everyone's life where it hits hard and harder!

    I really enjoyed your poem! Your reflections on childhood innocence and the challenges of growing up are powerful and relatable. The imagery of the kite and the contrasts between light and dark create a strong emotional impact. It’s impressive how you navigate feelings of confusion while maintaining a sense of hope for the future. Keep sharing your voice!

    Indeed, this poem beautifully depicts the journey from childhood innocence to the complexities of adulthood, as if nothing remains. The contrast between the joy of flying kites and the depths of doubt and struggle is profound. Your exploration of hope and strength is truly touching. It has compelled me to think deeply. This is a powerful reminder that even amidst confusion, hope and strength can emerge. Keep writing like this
