En route to Success



On the way to success
Is diversity of events unplanned
That bereft one of peace
And that may shatter one in piece.

The end could no one configure
Though the zeal is heavily burning
And to decide to dissuade from failure
A heavy sacrifice one has to make.

The path at a time will seem rough
Unpalatable and dissatisfying
But the end is the means to the wealth
For the wealth is the giver of health.

Chose to forge on
Thriving through with all resilience:
For the winner of a battle to glory
Is not a weakling that run
In moments that seem disastrous
But of one,that stand in courage
Keeping all negativity at bay.

With a hope that keep believing
And action that keep willing
Your success will be define.
