What Is Left? Poem by ManmeetSingh Boyal

What is left when everything is destroyed?
What is left when everything vanishes?
The only spark of hope,
Enlightens the whole world.

What is left when you are beaten down on the ground?
What is left when you have lost everything?
The only will of getting up and fighting,
Makes you do things that you would have never thought of.

When life leaves no option but defeat,
No one remembers the one who compromised.
The only person who stands till the end,
Receives honour.

When you are dead,
No one remembers what you did,
But the only thing that is left is,
What you believed in.
