Nameless Being
Nameless Being
For a name and some fame throughout your being
To rise every day with a lustre like the sun
To achieve what they call ‘Glory’, we people run.
Whose glory isn’t accompanied with fears?
Whose wings do not flutter in fear of the wind?
Whom did you not yet imitate, trying to become more like him?
Have you yet decided whom to worship or whom to hate?
Fireworks burning in your eyes, blooming for luxury in pain;
What have you finally become?
Trying to catch the rest while yourself fell
Pretended to be enthusiastic, free of shackles,
Pretending to own what isn’t yours, what you haven’t earned.
Never giving but taking, only for some fun
Imitating what others think of you
and becoming what you never were;
What have you finally become?
Who are you nameless being?
Where is your life? Where have you been?
Aren’t you tired of pretending to live under other people’s reign?
Forgetting who matters and who don’t
Continue chasing glory for your own sake.
Yes, you may feel wearisome; yes, you may feel like giving up
But what does one become with feeling nothing?
So, go ahead nameless being
to a place where your heart is free
where you can live a life while going your way
You may no more be the person who doesn’t live like everyone
But at the least, that will be the name of your nameless being.
Oh, nameless being;
Become enthusiastic, become free of shackles,
Become what they never thought you’ll be.
It could be strenuous or not what you deemed
But for what’s worth you’ll be blooming
Who isn’t desperate enough to get to the end?
Who isn’t desperate enough to see what happens?
And whose glory is not accompanied with tears?
Just don’t forget to live your life along the way.
