The Unique Me

The Unique Me
is a destination
still undiscovered.

Though many travel the road,
it is clouded by fog,
remaining to be what seems
a myth.

The question most asked –
is it just like everything else?
Should I even bother setting out
to find it?
Or is it something new,
original and beautiful
in its own way?

What separates it
from everything else?
How do we know it even exists?
Has anyone found it?
I shudder at the answer...

A plethora of failure hits
at every corner,
the strongest obstacles
in the way of the journey,
the biggest hurdle –
the ruler.

Though many have tried
and all have failed,
I will put my heart
and mind
to the test.

I will carry my hope
at its strongest,
and leave my faith to grow.

I will venture the path
ridden with difficulties,
fight the monsters
guarding the way,
and discover The Unique Me,
and break down the gates.

Once and forever.
