Harsh Truth

Not a great speaker, 

an introvert nerd.

A hardcore engineer with a lot of passion

for his stream. The dreams never 

let him sleep.

Hoping he brings a change to his country.

By being a distinguishable individual 

not seeking recognition.

The relatives denied directing him,

His father contemplated him, 

with devastating words,

For not capable of succeeding.

With lost belief, and a deartthe h of 

excitement he devoured each day,

Scanning for a job 

while learning about 

the unknown forest 

called corporate.

Jobs were applied, walk-ins were attended,

Resumes were born out of 

exorbitant printers and 

were buried in the dustbin.

Their motivation drained, 

as he stood frozen in time

and another engineer jobless, 

worthless being interrogated by society.

He opted for a mediocre job, 

far below his potential,

Where the proposal was not compelled.

Finally, a call the day came.

Hopes came alive, 

He was before HR for a 

call center job. 

Suddenly the thousands of 

thoughts were born,

And a spell was cast on him, 

the mind became void, 

searching for words.

What felt like an opportunity, 

turned into a disaster.

The human resource manager 

asked him not to waste his time, 

and get out of the room,

As they were not seeking dumb.

As a genuine fresher, 

he was able to thank him.

It was devastating, adding more 

pain to the injury.

Already with a lot of baggage, 

he kept moving by persisting.

The number of interviews increased, 

but not the successful outcome.

He went and met friends, 

so-called well-wishers, 

and families, they were so thrilled 

and lenient In offering free 

advice rather than contacts 

they could afford to share.

Time passed, 

efforts endured, and finally, 

it paid off all his hurdles.

He did get a job, with his efforts.

The hard lesson was learned, 

The time will come for everyone 

if hard work is persistent.

Don't lose your self-respect, 

people who speak won't come 

to rescue you.

You need to thrive, in a jungle called life, 

where foxes roam to be the emperor.

At the last, do treat individuals 

and interviewees as humans.

And no job is worth at the 

the expense of self-worth.

Introverts, do need to speak, but reject them with respect they are not garbage.

Everyone is unique and deserves equality!
