The Uncertainty of The Soul

Oct 18, 2025
1 min read

By Zuha Faizullah Khatib


Valleys of gold and an abyss of silver

 I should face everything heads on;

Oh, but then why at the thought of failure I I shiver?


The decision, after all, is mine.

The stars I see in the night sky is how I so dearly wish to shine 


“A waste of talent and intelligence “as they said

My moods are bit sour; the bouquet of irises on table is dead.


The skies are grey, but that's quite fine.

If I quit now what that be a foolish decision of mine?


 I should at least try first and later weep.

Then, why do I wish to retreat?


I do not let any negativity creep.

Then, why is the feeling in my heart so bittersweet?


 I feel so confused;

 But I push forward to have my potential proved.


 I look at the future ahead of me, which is oh so divine.

So, if I give up now, would it really be fine?
