THE FRIEND INSIDE

As my eyes peered out of the glass

My mind wandered to lands of the past.

To the places I had been.

To the people I had seen.

Its a funny thing, life

One moment you seem to be cruising 

The other it could be a battle you are losing. 

You may have faced countless obstacles. 

But you know you got to keep moving.

A sun ray hits  your face.

Distracted, your thoughts slow their pace. 

Reflecting on where you are,

Pondering on where you are headed

I think You were on the right tram.

I think you are past the phase you dreaded. 

How can you feel down

When you know you've earned a crown.

Its such a beautiful feeling

When you see even the sun is setting 

Yet you are still rising.

You are above the clouds

Yet anxiousness you are symbolizing.

I think you are meant to soar

Don't you think it's about time you roar.

 A desert of salt

Covered by an azure ocean of blue.

It was like you were fresh out of the vault.

On you, the winter sun's yellow hue.

I think you are meant to soar

What about you?

So just keep your head up and ears open.

This time you have truly woken.

You are now an unstoppable force

Your spirit has taken you on a divine course.

Now there is no looking back

You are surely on the right track. 

It doesn't matter what they call it, white or black

If you believe in what you are doing

Just take their opinions and put them on the rack.

If ever in a moment of self doubt

Just snap out of that clout.

You navigate your own route

Of that never stop being proud.

Surely there will be moments where you are shaken

It will make you question the road you have taken.

But believe and your spirit will come to the fore

It will elevate you like never before.

Nothing teaches like adversity,

Don't run away from it

Face it with bravery,

Life's experience are full of diversity

Some moments could be alluring and others quite unsavory.

Learn from both

But never treat it as slavery.

Just follow your true calling

The outcome can never be appalling.

 As your aircraft begins to descend 

There is not much left to comprehend.

Your spirit needs no uplifting 

Its still in the air meandering.

Don't try and tame it

Never try to blame it.

It will never lead you astray

It takes self doubt out of the fray.

Once you touchdown

Don't be a bird that stays clung to the ground.

Don't be a bird without its wings

Your place is in the heavens

Your place is in the pantheon of kings.

So fly away my friend,

Fly to your mind's will

Its upto you to be an eagle or an hornbill.

So goodluck to you my friend.

I am with you on every bend 

I am with you till the end.

But don't keep me in the boot

I call shotgun on this journey

Together we can split the loot.

Don't turn a deaf year to me 

I am your spirit and I will make you free.
