Tough Roads Poem by Varsha M

Tough Roads

Rating: 5.0


As a child, l often feared
To step on path that led wired.

Never was I confident
I'll choose the best.

Only because I never dread
To walk on the land called hard.

Thorns and thistle around
Injure my sole smooth and sound.

Imprints of blood define
Every destination I choose.


Falling down on lane so uncommon
Often go unnoticed on long run.

But the breath within me
Never gave up, until I made.

Stepping on the stone so beautiful
Never failed to burn the charcoal.

Accomplishing to meet destination glorious
Was never what I imagined all these days.

Persistence, patience and perseverance
Was tough to maintain at one place.

Sandwiching with passion and purpose
Made it flourish like invigorating source.

Cont.. Yet, it is those paths that are full of holes and darkness that will shape us to become brave, determined and more knowledgeable in our life's journey.
