Ambiguity

This poem is about lacking direction. At the time of my writing this, every aspect of my life was in “limbo”. I had just recently decided that I was going to make an effort to transfer out of Drexel into Indiana University, but was awaiting the acceptance decision for their audio engineering program.

In addition to the uncertainty with regards to my academic career, I had also recently had a severe falling out with a group of friends. It has often been hard to see the positive and to identify reasons to believe that life would improve. The light at the end of the tunnel was especially difficult to see at the time that I wrote this, and like most creative expression, was used as a coping mechanism to weather the lack of stability that was incredibly detrimental to my mental health.
