Uncertainty of Life

Uncertainty, you walk beside me every day...

I ask you, unknown paths, where do you lead me?

Life, a fleeting shadow on shifting sands,

Dreams like whispers, slipping through our hands.

Each step uncertain, a mystery untold,

Moments of courage, a heart so bold.

The sun may shine, the storm may roar,

What lies ahead, none can explore.

Yet in this chaos, beauty we find,

In love, in hope, in the ties that bind.

So let us wander, with fearless grace,

Embrace the unknown, life's endless maze.

For even in darkness, stars still gleam,

In life's uncertainty lies the dream.

Why embracing it becomes so hard?

Like a storm, it rages, leaving us scarred.

A thousand questions survive in my mind,

Each one elusive, no answers to find.

After the storm lies the peace I seek,

Yet I thought of it, but cannot defeat.

Still, I rise, for the storm must wane,

And through its fury, wisdom remains.

Oh, uncertainty, why so undefined?

You blur the edges of our time-bound mind.

Yet it is you, who shapes our plight,

Our future's shadow or guiding light.

Through your chaos, we learn to strive,

For in uncertainty, we truly come alive.

Yet, oh uncertainty, I’ve learned to see,

You’re not just chaos, but possibility.

You test my will, you mold my soul,

In your shifting shadow, I find my goal.
