The Journey

I wrote this poem when I'm about to enter college in
Polytechnic University of the Philippines.
I wrote this to express my impression in college life,
but when I transferred in Pamantasan ng Lungsod ng Marikina,
things were very different. :)

The Journey

                    

The journey is about to start,

In this world that no one can be trusted.

Everyone is my opponent,

Pretenders that I can never lean on.

I should fight for my survival,

I should feed on my own.

Learn to protect myself to reach my star,

Learn to step others like an old friar.

This journey will take me into a place that awaits me,

A place that I don’t know what’ll be.

Whether riches in gold or bounty sufferings.

The journey is about to start.
