My share in life

is to thrive

on virgin paths.

Devote my soul

without control,

let it be free to explore

all elating glee

and taste some tints of sorrow.

Just what destiny

has to borrow.

    Vasos, this is a beautifully defiant and tender manifesto. The image of thriving on “virgin paths” sets a bold, adventurous tone, while the willingness to embrace both “elating glee” and “tints of sorrow” shows real emotional maturity. I especially love the closing twist—framing it all as something destiny simply “has to borrow”—which adds a touch of humility and mystery. A heartfelt, honest piece.

    This is a really beautiful poem. I love the sense of freedom in it, exploring life’s paths with both joy and sorrow woven together.
