Nail Inside You

Making a plan is not so simple

It needs positivity  for you to enable

No matter how hard the wood is

There’s always a nail to release

 

T o achieve one’s goal is to do the best thing

And embrace with willingness the law of sacrificing

To live with balance not too much of anything

 Live by doing not by dreaming

 

The path can’t always be guided by light

Expect for barriers and learn how to fight

Courage and prayer will keep you on sight

To survive the obstacles of the day and night

 

No matter how hard you fight for your goal

Being a knight is your ultimate role

To protect and keep your ambition high

And live with dignity until you die

 

Allow yourself to push your limit

Some of your goals are high as a summit

Always stay strong no space for being weak

Until you can reach the highest peak

 

Like a nail that is hard and sharp on its edge

Can make a hard wall into a hedge

You can always break the hardest hardwood

Be humble and focus instead of being rude

;)

Live by doing not by dreaming - i like this line
its short but it meant so much more
a very nice poem about doing the things you love most

[jessdixon]

I like how your message comes across clearly, and your perfect rhyme schemes doesn't take away from the message. One comment? Your last line breaks the mostly perfect rhyme scheme, so it seems a bit abrupt. Great work, though!

I like this, it is all about the fighting spirit. What we create within ourselves is what we create of our life, I have found. We must be the positive change we want to see in this world. Very nicely done and the last line is a powerful one!

Awesome poem! I loved the metaphors used! The last line was my favourite, keep writing!
