Yugen #24 Battles in Life

There are battles that I am constantly fighting;

Some internal, many more external.

Since birth fighting to gain attention, acceptance and inclusion,

At school, a race from mediocracy, to prevent fall from grace,

At college to be a preferred student, to gain appreciation,

At work for recognition, growth and citation,

At home to fit into a role as defined by society.

Within Me I ask “Who am I really “

Left behind somewhere in this journey

Submerged my dreams, desires and destiny

For there is a battle that I am constantly Fighting

Mostly internal and many external

To Find

What Defines Me .
