Redemption

For anybody who needs a quick motivation .

Words can’t express the anguish

Spreading in my  mind .

A reactive mixture of repentance and anger,

Boiling like water inside me,

Are not letting me to breathe.

 

What have you done ?Why did it happen like that?

Are propping up inappropriately …..

I feel like crying but alas….

 no tears dare to flow

From my angry ,disappointed eyes .

Words can’t express the anguish

Spreading in my  mind .

 

My mind so hurt so helpless

Reminisces a scene from my glorious past

Oh !Those were golden days ,it says

The days when you where the Queen

Everyone looked up at you

With a sense of jealousy mingled with respect

But now they simply lift their noses and avoid .

You are visibly invisible, known but unknown .

Your crown has rusted and has lost its sheen .

 

Just then my soul speaks out…

Don’t you want that old respect

Don’t you know that it was a younger you

Which enjoyed the taste of leadership

Have lost the spirit ,the zeal to succeed ?

Remember failure is not fatal and success

Not at all final .It is a long journey.

 

Don’t worry time’s still there

To reclaim your lost glory

And if you really want to relish the zest of life,

Never give up your hope.

At last my mind starts to normalize

It promises that even if I win a thousand games

I will never quit or with pleasure sit

Down to take a rest

Every day day I will give my best

And forget the rest .

 

So dear reader, if this poem brings

A change in you so deep

Do return again and give it a peep.

Very inspiring lines!

A very motivating and inspiring poem to help get someone out of the negative mind talk that so hurts and brings them down.

Very very well done!

you're really good at expressing your thoughts through narrative poetry. Every line had just influenced my notions, thank you.
