Hard Work


I tried to work hard and hard

But failure accompanied me

I dream and aim far and far

But failure is only thing I see

I think of it round and round

But success is not gained

Thinking of it again and again

It only gives me pain

Someday I bet success for sure

No sky will be my limit

Efforts I put are not in vain I know

Coz everything will reap of what i sow

And then with pride, the head will high

And the enemies will ask why?

And someday i will say with a sigh

You work hard to sweat but happiness die

And enjoyment in life I forgot 

Which with money cannot be bought

Each little happiness that I sacrificed

Feels like hurting but yet I think decision was wise.
