Keep Fighting!

Got a piece of paper,

With nothing in mind to write.

All I know, I want to feel better,

and make this day seem right.

The world is revolving, continuing

though I am beaten and aching.

Hope sets on me, keeps on reminding,

That, 'Hey, this is not your ending!'

Looking at people, I realize,

We all walk different paces and strides.

Some earn the stars fast and easy,

while others need to struggle just to break free.

I, myself, seems nowhere today.

Everything seems blurry and gray.

While others explore the vast world,

Here I am, isolated in a tiny space - curled.

Yet hope is there for me to believe

that this is not all that I am to live.

Where I am is just a detour.

When my life blooms, I'll reach greater heights for sure.

Just hold and make the most of it.

Learn life's lessons, never falter a bit.

This is a time to realize that I am blessed.

That He is with me, even if I'm stressed.

Though these days everything seems rough,

I'll get by coz I was born tough.

It's not easy to stay calm and focus,

but that's the mindset I consciously choose.

Believe that you can, and that, you will.

Be of courage, and do what you wrote.

Aim for the stars, and make the best deal.

Coz no matter what, there is hope.

Just like a bamboo tree, I often thought.

In the first few years, though it shows no growth.

Be patient and keep on working,

the roots' growing, soon the stems' shooting.

Train your mind to think positive,

even in times of struggling and too many negatives

When a new chapter unfolds, you'll be grateful you did.

Coz in the end, those who keep fighting, succeeds.
