MOTIVATION LIES WITHIN

we move with sinew strength
to blaze the trail and make moves
over life and its challenges
the more one exerts, the more it becomes ticklish

this life is unpredictable
it comes in waves and goes in torrents
we wonder at how fast it has become
the more we look, the less it portends

sleep after sleep the woes remain
looking for escapism but remain inescapable
the troubles of life indescribable
the countenance taking morose appearance

we wonder how it could be overcome
despite the existence of non-performers
nobody helping but looking after himself
all man for himself is the popular aphorism

despite the challenges of life
we have to make way and chart a new course
a way paved with love and happiness
the existence of unpalatables just fleeting
it will go but it requires a little time
