I went to the bookstore to get a book,
Alas i never found one,
There were tons of choices before me, which one to pick? Stumbled me,
The thriller section looked mesmerizing,
But I knew the same old can’t-put-the-book-down,
The self improvement section reeked of success,
But it was also a pitfall, striving on my downfall,
Then I saw the romance section,
Loving so hard it made me jealous,
How perfect these characters seemed,
But the reality was far different..
I wish I could choose one,
Between success, love and passion,
Won’t be able to handle all 3 together,
So i came out of the bookshop, emptyhanded and confused
I wrote this poem as an outlet to this confusing part of my life…. What career to pursue… I keep jumping between literature and computer science…. I wish it was easier to know what to choose and what will make you successful, but I guess finding it out is Life.
Dear reader, if you are undergoing something like this, give it time, go knee deep in both fields and try to understand what you are good at…. And pursue it.. That’s all
Thanks you<3
