Don'T Give Up

Sinking in a deep abyss where hope feels lost,
And dreams  slowly dissolve , counting not the cost.
Behold there stands a spirit, undeterred, unshaken,
Let your spirit soar as your passion is awakened.

Through the many trials and  when doubts assail,
And tears flow freely like countless raindrops frail,
Be a  beacon of strength, with  an unwavering flame,
Don't look back but  let your dreams remain the same. 

The road maybe long and winding as  obstacles unfold,
But deep within there's a fire of truths untold.
A spirit that's  unyielding as it rises and take its stand,
Ushering the dawn of a new day , for greatness  is at hand.

And in those dire moments with burdens seem so vast,
When voices echo all is lost, and time is moving  too fast,
With sweat on brow, let your tears be  mixed  with grit,
With a strong resolve, let the world know,  your spirit won't quit.

For in  the deep recesses of your heart, lies a warrior's might,
A  great will to conquer all and  rise in the night,
To boldly face the odds  with courage that is so  untamed,
And a gateway  to your destiny of dreams not maimed.

When doubts whisper softly and beg you to yield,
And darkness encroaches all round making wounds unhealed,
Summon your soul for all its worth and let your resilience awake,
Dare to hold on with all your might for dreams are at stake.
And when this  world seems to  forget and cast you away,
Remember that you have the  strength, you need to face each day.
Don't  be discouraged for not even a minute  for within you lies,
The power to soar  to new heights and  reach the  skies.

So stand tall with purpose amidst life's  cruel tempestuous sea,
And with unwavering fortitude , let your spirit be free,
Embrace every challenge that rears its head,
 Don't give up! never back down, press on instead.
