THE GAME IS NOT OVER UNLESS “I” END IT……

In a gloomy, dark room, lighted by a lamp,

I saw myself, in the mirror,

Hopeless, unhappy and damp.

    “Why this drooped face, why this sorrow?”

    I said this to the image of me, asking,

    “Why do you shatter the aim for a better tomorrow?”

Came back the reply from the pessimism within,

Very proudly, it said, “It’s due to your fate!!”

With a fake smile, really very thin,

I said “To guess that, you are a bit too late…”

    With faith in myself and my God,

    I scolded that negativity,

    And very boldly I still stood.

It was quiet, listening to me carefully as I spoke,

“You are a coward, you are nothing,

You cannot stop me and my dream!!”, I shouted and I choked.

    It became serious, paid a little more heed,

    Expected me to be really scared,

    As I stood again, it fell back with failure, indeed.

I saw my negativity, failing in front of me,

I had won, I had changed the

The bad, unreal me….

It was a great achievement,

The real achievement of ‘Me’ over ‘Me’.

I was proud that I had led my own movement,

I thanked my god, I thanked my courage.

    I had very blissfully killed my opponent,

    The pessimism, which had grown out of the cage.

The bars of my emotion let it free to an extent,

Which bred its dark and unwanted rage.

    Oppressing the positivity and hope towards the omnipotent,

    It grew like a spot of ink on a wet page.

That was all due to the faith, the belief, the major hope in my dream,

The love, the affection, the only way I wanted my dream to breed.

The moments of sorrow, are a test which are meant to be passed,

Not just to be left, but are to be scored well by striving hard.

Always remember, the ones who have the capability are recommended to be tested,

While the ones, whose hope is not there, are just left as it is.

So, never be afraid of such challenges,

You are lucky if you are selected to be a candidate in an exam like this.

In which you are checked on the basis of your handling,

And judged by the supreme power to be praised for your amazing achievement,

Praised for your amazing achievement...
