A Life Of No Purpose Poem by Boledi R Petja

A Life Of No Purpose

Rating: 5.0


Call it just a mere existence and I will understand why they say it's useless... this life of no purpose where planning is unknown and goals are never met...A life of zero dreams and lesser ambitions...call it hopeless and watch it crumble like a foundationless castle...attach all the hate to it and see its core colors of brutal truth...they call it motionless because it is forever static...no direction...no value none whatsoever...no change...no hope...no nothing...but the life of no purpose weighs heavy than all the positive thoughts combined...we breath through old wounds of shattered visions...we look ahead in pains of empty promises...we are chained by our thoughts of how it must be...we are strapped by the belts of mental distractions...they say no pain no gain is the slogan of hope we must relate to...we all want to achieve somethings in our lives but it is the 'HOW' part that's forever blurry...

POET'S NOTES ABOUT THE POEM
Looking at how life demands us to be at a certain level of acquired success, to feel content, confident, happy, fulfilled, and relevant, makes it worthy to call out for the need to firstly look at all the obstacles that have a potential to weigh us down on our journey to achieve somethings in our lives and longing for hope that we get there despite all the mental doubts, limitations, procrastinations and lack of motivation.
