Life



Life can be a try-out of endurance,
It may hurdle or ease your performance
A journey that takes us through the unknown
And at times we feel so alone
 
It can be full of twists and turns,
It may be like ice or may cause burn,
It explores challenges every day,
And sometimes we lose our way.
 
At times we stumble and at times we fall,
And it seems like we're going to lose it all
But in the midst of the storm,
We find the courage to carry on
 
We gear ourselves up and try again,
And think that we’ll never end up in vain
We learn to face the unbearable fears,
Get the courage to wipe away our tears
 
We at times achieve the strength to fight,
And we never give up without a sight
For every hurdle we face,
We obtain a little more grace.
 
As the every hardship we endure,
We get a chance to be a little more pure.
Life may be seem like a bumpy ride,
But we always have the power to decide
 
We can choose to rise above the pain,
And witness the sunshine after the rain.
We can choose to be one among strong,
And keep on moving forward all along
 
So when you think, life gets tough,
And the road is looking rough,
Just remember that you're not alone,
And you'll definitely find a way back home.
 
So let the venture be your guide,
And let your tired heart be your pride.
Since in the end, you'll find your way,
And you’ll get stronger every day
