COMPETITION PROMPT
Write a poem where the central theme is reflection.
Don’t Wait
Nothing left and everything remains
Memory of a dream forgotten
Plagued by paths untraveled
Tortured in a haze of what could’ve been
Years ago the choice was made
Once decided, never considered again
The fire of burned bridges makes ghosts
Most still ask how it’s been - but it’s all pretend
This life is a game no one can win when the choice is barely survive or just give in instead.
Doesn’t matter what you read, what was said was that all ends up dead. So fill your head with the knowledge - spread it but don’t fret it because the truth is that in the end it’s about connection, not collection. Don’t wait ‘til there’s nothing left and everything remains
Instead live a life of constant reflection.
