Confidence

My destination is unreachable,

rather there are none;

bewildered my beloveds are...

They bother me a lot,

make me scream in pain.

They let me down every moment,

love to see me in strain.

Yet, walking through the road,

I smile at them, in disguise;

Scared they may feel defeated,

as I hold my head high.

shouldn't ever let anyone stand in your way or hold you back... easier said than done, especially when those you love, but you have to be yourself.. keep that head held high, but turn that disguise into a smile that radiates from the heart.. I admit, this one in the beginning confused me just a little.... I do love the resilience, strength, and determination expressed in this piece.. there are always going to be those kind of people that find joy in your misery, that try to thwart progress.. you have the right attitude my friend, smile and let them know they will never win:)

Destination is always unreachable. As we proceed towards it, it seems still ahead. Being with beloveds is not a destination but it leads to the the right destination where you shall feel at home though for sometimes yet the greater destination still to be achieved.
As for as the beauty of the poem is concerned it is superbly expressed. Thanks for sharing so amaging piece!

Thanks for the review. Though what I have written here contradicts your point that being with beloveds leads to the right destination. I actually have written that my beloveds let me fall everytime , they actually act as a barrier between me and my destination ...yet I move on and solely on my own. :) :)

If the beloveds are the persons who love you much....

Reading these lines I can clearly say that your environment is not in favor of your growth. But it is reflected quite beautifully in your poem. Be yourself and make your own world that is what I would suggest.

When the self realises they can only walk their own path, it does leave confusion for others who see a different person that perhaps has been there all along only if they would have noticed, beautifully voiced xo
