I Strive
Why shall I freeze my dreams?
Why can’t I let them flow?
While some maybe hopeless,
But some may tend to grow.
You find me as an ugly rock,
Some think I am a worthy stone,
But do you know who am I?
Just jumbled flesh and bone.
I have tasted many failures,
Still I strive towards my goal,
Tell me not success is sour,
You cannot silence my soul.
I shall keep my hope alive,
Till the night is bright as day,
The only time I shall give up,
When death comes in my way.
Some may tend to love me,
And some may tend to hate,
I keep dwelling in my dreams,
I am the master of my fate.
Inspired by the line- I am the master of my fate - by William Ernest Henley
