but everythingmeans nothing.

life now is just like a marathon ; never ending
hurdle by hurdle ;
sprint by sprint ;
pants of desparation ; fills the still air
with a mighty heap ;
legs fly high ; over the hurdle
and looking ahead ; another hurdle
the heat screeching against the tired feet ;
the discouraging sun ; scorching down
footstep by footstep ; still too slow
trying to keep up ; lets out a high scream
but nothing worked ; still too slow
a heap of hurdles entered the eyes ;
a huge sigh ;
followed by a tinge of determination ;
but the will dropped ; when the hurdles drew nearer
the consequences ;
filled the mind ; the what ifs
over the first hurdle ;
over the second hurdle ;
at the third hurdle;
the legs hit the board ; agony
falling onto the floor ; thud
that thud of failure ;
that thud of despair ;
that thud of embarrassment ;
that thud of no will ;
that thud ;
attempt ; get back on feet
staggering ; helpless
weakened ;
the long track ahead lay upon the eyes ;
and for the first time ;
a light shone ; the light
of hope ;
of success ;
of determination ;
that light of the aim ;
a goal ;
but to the light ;
were thousands of miles ;
was a thousand hurdles ;
a hundred falls ;
ten cries of despair ;
and one strong heart ;
to overcome ;
to learn ;
to lead the way into the light ;
getting back on the feet;
looking ahead ;
still not that confident ;
but with failure ; comes success
with success comes experience ;
each drop of sweat ;
a good sign ;
each failure ;
a learning sign ;
the learning journey ; starts ahead.
