Falling

F A L L I N G

The road is long and hard and weary,
I have to carry my load and carry on,
Every time I take a step there is
Someone to bring me down,
How will I complete my journey without falling…?

Then I suddenly realize that
The ones who pull me down
Need not be in my life at all 
They are just like vagrant stones in my path
I cannot avoid them but,
I will not stumble on them either….

The cycle continues and 
I pick myself up...

I have rainbows to catch.
