Life Is Rough and Tough

 ‘ Life is a game and you are to compete, making yourself fit to survive , ‘ Poet

      Life is rough
     Take as a challenge.
     Path of life
     is thorny.
     You are sure to put in strife 
     Normal happenstance.

     Life is tough
     on daily struggle.
     Road not smooth -
     Trouble runs -
     Rare chance to win and also,
     fair chances to lose.

      Pathless wood
    You are to traverse
     Make your way :
     Lone fighter !
     Ignite your soul to brighten
     your dull darkened days.
