Rejection Or Redemption?

By Rabani Dhingra

It wasn’t just a dream of a week,

It was my life dream,

What if I am rejected?

Will I burn from the sun’s heat?

Or will I shine from the sun’s heat?

Will my pain be my beauty then?

Or will this be my fight song,

Or will I forget how to be strong?

With all those things I didn’t say in the past,

Will they explode, like glass?

Will others motivational words make me try to cover up my pain,

Or will it be scarred for life like a strain?

Will it be a life better than ever?

Or will it be wrecking balls in my brain?

Will those daydreams also end?

Or will I be one of my drawings which can blend?

Will my eyes be closed but I’ll be awake?

Or will I be fake until I am myself again?

Either way there will be a lot of fight left in me,

Either way like those big waves,

I will be alright, but not tonight but sometime,

perhaps not in a motion,

Even the tsunami doesn’t settle so fast in the ocean.
