I Have To Perform
I Have To Perform
I am the king of the jungle, yet have to roar
I do not fancy such an act, yet I have to perform
I am the supreme,
my strength, no one can beat
Yet I feel miserable at times
as I am bugged with crippling uncertainty
I sprinkle some effervescence on me to validate my stature and being
A boisterous outcry at times,
a deep moan corroborating frustrations of life
The roar... symbolizes my soul and being
I wish to chirp and tweet
fly and soar like like a bird but that is not to be
At twilight, my overweening attitude
dwindles and stoops a bit
apprises me of the realities of life
I acknowledge with majestic stance
while my roar does all the talking.
