The Age of Coming-Poetry

Post by Maribel Salamanca »

The Age of Coming

College life.
Hunting for jobs.
Stuck between needs and wants.
Confusion and adjustment.
Early adulthood.
Maturity hits differently.

The age that we all wanted to be right there,
yet the age that will gather all our shits to summon life differently.

The age that will initially challenge us to focus on our goals or to terminate it because priorities in reality is what we are not prepared for.

The age where we all seek peace and serenity. The chaos we were in at this age is not transparent, life will let us feel how to be unvalued and unheard.

The age where the main goal is to be financially stable, disregard the kind of job we had, lose our dream to be blinded to what money can pretend us for.

The age where we all got heartbroken, trusting and being traumatized at the end. Looking for someone that will ease the raging storm inside us.

The age where we knew we lost all the circle of friends we had. The truest among them will only be counted by fingers. The lesser, the better.

It is the age where all individuals found their reality. Prioritizing things they never knew before or at least they set aside before, because they picture their future life on what they see through television, heard from the radio and read from their favorite novel.

No one taught us from school that life has a different side. Our parents surely mentioned that life is inevitable, that life is full of holes. You have to get up and fight one step at a time.

One step at a time, yet we all know we had to jump off the train and skip life sometimes. If we ever woke up again, time to get up and be ready for what life's gonna throw us at.
