Reflections - Shadows Or Mirrors Poem by Jithu Varghese

Driven by passion and ardor
He strived for success and glory
Hardwork and intensity are what he put forward
Honesty and integrity are what he believed in

His vision was to bring that change around him
Not knowing the ramifications
He thought words of wisdom spoken
Would bring daffodils around
Everything around him was driven by ego and self pity
His innocence blinded him

A change we need is all he thought
how and when He said would follow soon
He kept his trust in the one above
Sleepless he was day and night
Searching for answers he could never find

Walking through the thorny roads
All he saw were lillies and Daisies around
The path is tough and might make me pay
But the change will come he proudly said

Seeing the fervor and fire in him
Support and backing are what he needed I thought
Chance and Trust are the need of the hour
Still my Mind rattled around willy-nilly
And all I could say was 'Hope he will'
