Failure gives you loud slaps
Forcing you to extol the ineligible...
And give reluctant claps,
To the despicable and dishonourable...
This is exactly the time
You ought to further climb...

This failure would push you,
Mercilessly into an ocean of depression...
And your heart would tell you,
You'll soon drown- a scary precaution...
This is exactly the time
You ought to further climb...

Kith and kin who believed
You would win,
Will fling the hope they had
In the bin..
This is exactly the time
You ought to further climb...

Your defeat
Would be so brutal...
All your effort
Might seem to be futile..
This is exactly the time
You ought to further climb...

Your heart would console...
You've already tried many a times ...
You'd even conclude
Trying again is bootless and unwise...
This is exactly the time
You ought to further climb...

You'd think,none of your dreams,you will realize...
"Just give up!"- your heart would advise...
This is exactly the time
You ought to further climb...

You'd have been insomniac for so many days...
With blood-red eyes and flaccid, drooping eyelids...
You'd have been running in a marathon race...
Against the clock,burdening and brittling your ribs...
But keep in mind,
This is exactly the time
You ought to still stick on ...

You'd have persisted so many dizzy spells...
Awaiting the reward of all toil,
Making a countdown..
You'd have persevered so many ankle swells...
But,much more painful will be,
This comedown...
But remember,
This is exactly the time
You need to still stick on..

You'll now want to give up,on your oath ...
And lead like others,a petty life of mediocrity...
But take a look at the arduousness of your path...
And take pride in your ability to maintain integrity...
Because,
A new day will dawn,
For those who stand long...

This life will always tempt you to settle,
For something less than what you deserve...
But never ever fail in showcasing your mettle..
Under any circumstance,don't give up your verve...
Remember,
A new day will dawn,
For those who stand long...

It's the journey,you espoused,
That has molded you for greater good...
And it's the path you chose,
That proved to you,what all you could...
Don't forget,
A new day will dawn,
For those who stand long...

If delayed is the reward for your efforts,
Then,many are the experiences and lessons learnt...
The harder the struggle,
The greater the glory of victory...
Therefore,stay strong and keep doing your best...
Till you prove your flair and finesse,don't you rest...

Just say,"everything is going to be fine"
Because, FAILURE ISN'T THE FINISH LINE!
