Walking on the long twisted path
In the quest of my dreams
Wanting to reach my desired destination
In the light of courage and hope.
Sometimes, some negative shadows
Tease
Stride wobbles
As a hint of failure frightens
Sometimes, patience sighs in tiredness
But, eyes, focused on the target
Refuse to waver
Dedication declines to accept defeat
Wait but don’t give up
My inner voice says
Determination rears its head again
And I move my steps ahead
Full of zest
Now I can see clearly
The long-awaited, shining destination
Smiling at me profoundly
My heart, laden with emotions
Feels a sense of contentment
And Victory
It sings a song of
Delight!
