Success

 What is success?

Do you know?

Success is winning!

But not just so,

Success is about failing,

And trying again,

But to give an explanation,

This poem will commence.


On the 23rd of August,

India accomplished its target 

Of sending a rocket to the moon

I'll be writing about that soon.

But how did it do it?

The mission failed twice,

The team could've given up,

But India didn't think that was wise.

India tried, and in the end,

They made sure the rocket was well and sent.

Trust that you can do it,

And soon enough you will be doing just it.

You might fail but not in vain,

Cause you can always try again!


How do athletes win a race,

Of course, they have to keep their pace!

But surely, they lost 1 or 2 times?

But because they tried, they did just fine!


I might've failed in making a perfect poem,

It is a task, I could just give up and go!

But because I tried, though hesitantly, 

I made it to the end just fine, you see?


Trust and trust, trust yourself, 

You can do it, you need yourself to help,

Just think straight, have perseverance in your mind,

Try and try and success you can find.


Failure can help, but sometimes poison too,

Keep your mind clear, don't let it do so.

The only thing you need is trust and trust alone,

You can do it, you can find your way home.


Failures are the stepping stones,

To the end, on which success drones.

Failure helps you make your path

To success, and achieve just that.

Long Lost Sleep

  After a long, exhausting day, the only thing all of us look forward to is SLEEP. So, as soon as you finish off the last crumbs on your dinner plate, you fling yourself onto your bed, rest yourself in a comfortable position, get your pillow nice and fluffed up, and throw the blankets on yourself. But then... You just realised that you still have your big, wobbly earrings on. So you throw back the blankets and remove your earrings and leave them in their box. And then you're back in your bed, and just as your eyelids are about to close... You realise that you haven't brushed your teeth. So, yet again, your throw back the blankets and get off the bed, letting the annoying, creaky sound fill your head. And then you throw open the door to your bathroom, get your brush ready and squeeze toothpaste onto it, but... The tube seemed to have a hole on the back, which you sadly hadn't noticed. And you get toothpaste all over your hands. Fuming, you wash your hands and get things done...

So Close, Yet So Far

  What you knew you had right beside you What you never knew might leave you What you had neglected for days What you wished was still there, within your gaze. That miniscule amount of hope  That you feel lingering close by You could open out your arms, embrace it, But suddenly it's high in the sky. Once within your grasp, But now away from you, Don't waste a moment on a wee gasp, Time won't stop, and the moving hope too. Each moment is to be caught, Each memory to be cherished, Hold them carefully in your arms, Before they shall vanish. The consistent inkling when you feel, Something close, yet so far, Is only because you know yourself, That it is within your grasp, but not within your confidence. If you're positive enough that you can hold it, The 'it' that is mysterious and something only you know, You can hold the precious 'it', Clutch it tight, don't let it go. You must be close to the end of the day, With its cliffs and slopes and Rocky slides,...

Stars

  Shining in the vast night sky, I see them from afar. Dominated by the brighter moon, There glimmer the stars. Mostly hidden by the cruel shadows, Or by the thick, misty clouds. But they do not give up, they still glimmer on, They make their voice be heard loud. Even though they're hardly seen, Even though they're hardly thought of, They know that someday they will be, Thought of, honoured and loved. So take an inspiration from stars, Show your true essence, Continue to shimmer, ignore the darkness, Because one day it'll fear your presence.
