Compromise

It is bright

Like smiling sunshine

It Is light

Like coasting air

It draws from ambition and hope

Dipping deeper into the horizon

In order to cope

Desiring to break free to somewhere remote

It is determination sailing on a big boat

I used to cling to what I achieve

My success spilled over into greed

My accolades gave me self esteem

All the while… my heart searched for the things it would need

Emptiness of man feeds the machine

Working to thrive

In a world full of compromise

Love always, Ayesha
