The bigger picture

stagnation has always brought forth despondence

why cant i thrive as others despite trying my utmost

is my best not good enough

or is it enough to just refrain from doing my best as the result remains the same

though a rarity as one whom desires to find love

next to improbable in a world enthused by lust thus cant be tamed

my pride is all i have and the will to persevere

for though stagnant to stop the only option left is to die

but how can i accept defeat

when others have bore worse and yet have overcame

self pity weakens character

to seek sympathy negates stoicism

despite undeniably desired for all to dwell in our favor

problems are inevitable whilst the breath of life remains

shame is non existent due to one’s heights

where once towards the outer chanted praise to ones dismay believed in lies

but to sit and meditate where had to search from deep within

a long lost faith as if by fate miraculously has revived

am i destined for greatness for all to behold

or will i age feeble and grey until deceased pauperized 

the truth to many still hidden

replaced by a facade

though i yearn for it to unravel

as a veil has been lifted from my eyes

Paris was but a mere shepherd

until reinstated as alexander a prospective heir to the throne of troy

so kept in mind during times of gloom

a gracious queen groomed from a naive girl

and the most powerful of kings was first a simple little boy.
