A WINNER IN U ....

In the race of life, along far stretched roads,
There are mists and storms and thorns and stones;
Whether treading the path of labour or lust,
Facing trials, forge ahead you must;
Who said life is a bed of roses?
Never trust life, it cruelly reproaches!
But why not make the most of it...
Gnawing the pain bit-by-bit..?
If you break, you're lost and jagged,
If you face, you survive and last;
Destitude...thats how the world seems,
But, hey, you gotta beat it by all means!
If you fail to face the conundrums,
You’ll be throttled by the devious ones;
Reaching the sky isn't all that simple,
You ought to mell, you ought to scuffle;
You’ll get nothing sans a price,
T'is the stigma of a shrewd life;
Never fall prey to words that lure,
They're illusive, within no time losing their vigour;
Why ponder over an agonizing past?
Its gone forever, it'll never come back;
Rather think of the days to come,
Think of all the colourful seasons;
Forget all heartaches, forgive the sinner,
Star afresh, be a winner!
Life's all about tumbling and learning,
Its about taking risks and failing;
But the foremost lesson is to learn to smile,
Even while walking through a macabre mile;
Never lose hope, hold strong and hard,
Climb doggedly, reach the stars;
Dream again even if one shatters,
You gotta win the race, its all that matters!
And when you walk with your head held high,
You'll thrive, you'll touch the sky!
