One thoughtful evening

She sat there pondering about where she had reached,
she didn't know which way she had come,
she had come a long way, carving her own rules,
never did she wonder how she came this long.

She wasn't sure about what she wanted,
she was still separating the right from wrong,
she asked herself if she was too much behind the crowd,
there came no answer, so she followed her soul,

but she knew for sure what she didn't want,
she had her conviction and she had her faith,
in everything that she took up on the way,
she poured herself, without any dubiousness.

She could not recognise herself, as what she was before,
she had laughed, she had cried, she had her share of grief,
she knew she could not hide behind her fears and failures,
she had to stand tall, making up of all her mistakes.

She also felt this deep sense of accomplishment
when she looked back and checked her crashes,
she knew she could have given up so many times,
after all, it was just a matter of choice.

She was evaluating her journey so far,
to know if she was on the right way,
she had done a great job, and had learnt her lovely lessons,
sill lost in curiosity about where she was heading...
