INSPIRE YOU

Life is a mean and nasty place
It's gonna show you an angry face
So you have got to step up
Work your way up to the top

Why are you here?
Are you to be pitied
When there's a better title
No matter how many times you tred

Don't stop until you are at the top
Lives is too short, so don't aim small
Whatever you do, stand tall
And never give up

There's no reason for you to live small
The world is waiting for your shine
Raise your head, put on a smile
Go on, put on the wig! It's your call

I love this saying
If you want something,
People tell you, you can get it
It's yours, go get it!

Don't be deceived
Life isn't that sweet
As we thought when we were kids
Life is really dark as a pit

So when you get a chance
Don't fail to quickly take
What's yours, it's your place
And your fear boldly face

Life is a race
Many in this run engage
But just one wins
Go soar on eagles wings

Laziness is failures merchant
Get up, work up to the top
So the world, your praise can chant
It's up to you to aim that spot

Life is a misery
But we ought to give it meaning
After all this striving
We can win with positive infantry

I urge you to be brave
Don't just wait and crave
There's no pleasure in the grave
This message I want you to embrace

I pray God give you grace
To run this race
Whatever you believe on
Just be positive! Ride on

One day you shall reach your dream
Only when you follow consiousness stream
And never grow weary
That's only how you can taste victory

So aim for the top
Keep on the work, don't stop
You can win this race
Brace yourself for the next phase.

WRITE

The good old days
When our fathers
Wrote with ink and feathers
And illuminated us as lighters

Then the love for books
The joy of poetry pieces
The eagerness to learn
Not just only to earn

The legacy they left behind
Only few of us still keep in mind
How they taught us only to be true
How they persuaded us to love this course

Never derail from this part
This is what kept us far
It is the lamp in the darkest part
It will guild you if you never say never

It is something you can't rob
This message is to caution the mob
To not live astray
And to make you see the ninth ray

You might chose to believe
Or blot your mind with a lie
Nevertheless we never expected this of life
But we have to positively live life

Again I say never depart
From this noble part
It is the art
That kept our minds fat

We know how much they tried
The misery of life to understand
Each man to pen down his experiences
So the latter world could add up the pieces

Now it's our turn
How far have we gone
Did we fail on the long run
Or all our fathers works are forgone 

What a passive generation
Even with much established institutions
But they still lack the exact formation
All they could derive was miscalculations

This days is carried with new dews
We left the part of gurus
And decided to form something new
What is now left of the best things we once knew

I pray that I remain in that road
That my zealous fathers once rode
My pen will never dry to write you ode
So I can laugh and never regret when am old

Am this message my will deliver
To the world and beyond to read and hear
That poetry would never die in this era
It will live on forever

My children write for your generation
Don't heed to the visible temptation
That comes your way to charge you to depart
See you soon where we shall never part.
