Hoping this belief will set me free  
Liberating me from sea of fears 
& mountain of my chaotic thoughts 
Taking me to the land known to few 
Where thrill replaces fear 
Where thoughts become opportunities 
Where failure becomes a beautiful lesson  


Hoping this belief will unravel the experience of life 
Removing these labels on unruly emotions  
& just experience them up-close & raw 
Experiencing happiness & sadness at par 
Tearing down the shackles of mind 
Living beyond the construct laid  
Empathizing with the word alike  


Hoping this belief won’t dampen my soul  
Distancing me from my needs 
Away from the wants of the society  
To be involved & not attached 
On this unscripted journey of life 
To conquer & not survive  
These curveballs thrown my way  


Believing this belief has it all  
All the directions 
All the answers 
& that’s the script after all
