Inspirations

By Syeda Farhat Lamisa

It was a random night, on a hopeless day.

And engrossed in my daily chatter with Life,

I realised, as individuals we will always be alone;

But to survive this black and white magic of life,

You will always end up falling back on someone(s)

Who inspire(s) you endlessly; you will realise it’s not 

Dependence that you feel when you look at them –

But rather an untamed freedom felt from deep within;

They become the freers of thoughts, and the applause 

Behind dreaming big – powering you up with 

Inspiring arrogance to face the world with bold confidence

And most importantly with loving and fiery passion.

If you don’t have a majestic inspiration of the sort,

Then I suggest you find one, or two or three or countless,

Because once you do, any day will transform into a hopeful one.

I know mine did.
