Strive to Success (ImperfectPsychotic04) wk-5

Strive to Success

From the stargazing lilies,

To the crestfallen imaginations of a flightless bird.

We have traversed so far like a comet callous to take on the world,

Since the days of yore when we dreamt of stars and hoped to become like Achilles.

To only envision the golden day emblazoned in success of our endeavours and hard work,

Wobbling on our two good feet weakened by our failures sometimes.

We still have come to see this day startled by our starkly play-spark,

By the use of our skilful labour we've yet to encounter the check mark.

Upon the finish line, though we are still closer to the sidelines;

The future is festooned by our courage, fight and the bravery signs,

Which still speak of our valour, in some cumbersome manner.

We outshine, like outlanders in this galaxy of materialistic glamour with our originality and wilful demeanour,

Embrace yourself today for who you are end where you've come from.

For strength is what a lion feels when caged-numb,

Remember to dream and make believe in your aspirations like a gleaner.

Collect yourself for what is to come with firmness like a true believer,

For the world is limitless and so should you be in privy pursuit to possess,

What you see is but a goal garnished in toil for you to access;

So don't give up because of failures in excess,

Stay afloat and merry in your strive to success.
