Echoes of the Self: Whispers from Within

In the dance of shadows and light,

I find myself neither bound nor in flight.

For my essence ebbs and flows,

With the tides of my mind’s highs and lows.

No fixed creed, no steadfast stance,

Just a soul adrift in the cosmic expanse.

Today, I may be a nihilist, tomorrow, existential,

In the kaleidoscope of my being, all is ephemeral.

My mental state, my alter ego’s sway,

They shape the contours of my day.

One moment, I embrace the void’s call,

The next, I seek meaning, lest I fall.

So let me wander, let me roam,

Through the labyrinth of self, I’ll find my home.

For in the depths of my psyche’s embrace,

I discover the myriad shades of grace.
