Blend

I strive to blend, like a chameleon unseen,

In the tapestry of life, where I aim to convene,

To walk in shadows, unnoticed and calm,

But sometimes, I break the silence, like a sudden alarm.

I laugh too loud, my steps too swift,

In the stillness of the crowd, a distinct shift,

I speak in peculiar ways, my words a unique blend,

At those moments, I long to blend, to seamlessly transcend.

Yet, in these abnormalities, I find,

A palette of colors in the canvas of my mind,

For though I yearn to blend, to be just like the rest,

It's these vibrant hues that make me, at my best.

So I'll embrace the moments, when I stand apart,

As a chameleon in the crowd, with a colorful heart,

For in these unique shades, I'll find my own way,

To blend when I wish, and stand out, come what may.

Birth's gentle embrace,

Innocence in life's first breath,

A new journey starts.

Youthful days unfold,

With boundless dreams and laughter,

Life's vibrant colors.

Midlife's steady stride,

Responsibilities grow,

A purpose takes hold.

Age graces the soul,

Wisdom in the fading light,

A lifetime's passage.

Twilight casts its veil,

In the quiet of the night,

A peaceful farewell.
