LIFE :: A fight back!!
The morning shone bright,
Life was beckoning me with all its might,
Nature proclaimed its imperial immensity,
And every thing was brilliant in the city,
Happiness was all around,
There was no reason to be bound.
Success I thought had already been achieved,
Was I a fool to accept the fallacy of the deed?
To be complacent was a big mistake,
Joy and elation - my work - made me forsake,
The danger so great, my body did ache.
The harsh reality, seriously, made me shake.
I was all lost in a deep, deadly lake.
I was in the gloom of the despairing journey,
It was like existence on a gurney.
The excruciating pain of a spineless expedition,
To come was failure, defeat, and agitation.
Survival was a burden and life but a complication,
How do I get out of this was the most pertinent question.
Acceptance drove the fear away,
To confront was the only way.
Life is a pillar, absolutely vertical on ascent,
So difficult it gets, I feel my body dent.
My sinews crack and perseverance seems to lack,
The effort so immense, I am taken aback.
Life without a purpose is to dance in a trance,
A meaningless voyage in a wide expanse.
It might be like losing my head,
Hard work and dedication ensure a good night sleep on the bed.
To rest is a cardinal sin,
Relaxing would throw my efforts into a bin.
A small mistake may well be a blunder,
I might slip off with the sound of a thunder.
No doubt the weak do squander,
Iron mettle makes one part of the remainder.
The fruit of Eden keeps my motivation high,
To doubt my caliber, would make my mission die.
Not to rest until I reach the sky,
Is the reason-
I shall one day scale that high.
