IF I WERE YOU {AN ORIGINAL POETRY}

in #poetry5 years ago

If I happen to be you,
I will avoid every possible obstacle on my way
without considering what the obstacle is guiding.
after all, only the living can succeed.

Wake up friend,
you don’t have to confront plights
just because you want to succeed
don’t you ever think of alternative means?

These are some of the advice
you will come across
when you own a great dream
which demand you to overcome great difficulty
in order to make your dream become reality.

Day in, day out,
you hear people tell you
if I happen to be in your shoe,
I will do this,
I will do that.

Though yielding to advice cannot be jettisoned
in order to achieve success.
Nevertheless, taking your time to think about every advice you get
is what you should never joke with.

Although no one want to be a victim of any form of problem,
but since the key to success
is the ability to create solution to problem.
Let no one deceive you,
is either you confront your plight and proceed
or you run from plight and you remain in the same position.

Though, “if I were you” Is easy to utter
but no one can be you except you.
that is why you should take your time
to think about any advice you get
Before taking any action.

Yes you are right, that is why we have to think twice before we follow any advice.
