A journey with deceptions

spilleronsheet

The road to success 

everyone claims 

everyone cheers 

and so does everyone fantasise 

 

a young child 

looks up at the star

wishes to be a star 

a young student 

looks up at a scientist 

and wishes to reach the moon 

a young teenage looks up at high buildings 

and wishes to be an architect 

 

 

a young girl 

sees the plane in sky 

wishes to fly 

a young boy looks at the industry 

wishes to make money 

a young lad hears the speech 

wishes to be a leader next 

 

 

so we are told 

told about the road to success 

everyone tells us it’s hard 

you must work hard 

everyone tells us to read 

without worrying about bread 

everyone tells us to be focused

rather distracted 

 

 

they say there is a win 

on the mountain next 

All trials are just a moment of time 

you shall soon chime 

 

 

 

Alas

success isn’t easy 

the road is tough 

it’s lonely 

it takes up your rest 

sooner you realise your walking alone 

rather too much alone 

no one knows for how long 

 

 

the journey is boring 

while you are snoring 

the journey is tiring 

even though you are trying 

maybe success can take away all your pains 

 

but till zenith is reached 

the reality is

journey isn’t poetic 

it’s not mesmerising 

 

at moment of distress 

close your eyes 

whisper slowly to your mind 

you move towards success

so is your zenith moving towards you 

it’s a journey 

a journey of challenging yourself 

write a poetry or two 

sing a song when down 

cause your not a clown 

 

a joker can fake a smile 

but the question is how long can it keep while 

smile when you wish 

Be sad when you wish 

the journey is yours 

sing a song and make the goals yours 

 

 

keep moving 

keep raging 

keep hustling 

to the tunes of trials 

Dance to the journey of success 


it’s okay to take a rest….

    • spilleronsheet

      Thanks dear Rose
      The journey isn’t a bed of roses
      It is only thorns and more thorns
      But the caution is you can’t complaint
      Cause it’s the road you chose at first place
      So still awaiting the trophy of rose

      • Caring dove

      • woundedheart

        Looking forward to lockdown and an excuse to stay in bed lol. We all need to pause and reflect and not push our selves so hard its not a race it is a gentle stroll taking time to enjoy the veiw. Love this piece. 💜

          Take a rest indeed and raise the questions.... is the road you are upon really the road for you.... is there more to be gained of life's riches by travelling a different road?

          • spilleronsheet

            That’s thought provoking and till the breathe is there it’s never too late to retrospect the decisions we took…rather than hitting and wounding ourselves
            Thanks dear Dusk for your kind comments added to this poetry, it made this piece priceless

              Dear Spiller !!
              Sincerely I feel , passion when its at peak, the lonely journey is what matters.
              REST , but don't RUST !!
              Rest to Recharge, but don't Discharge
              REST is a break between a great ending and a great beginning.

              So Rest enough to Usher a New beginning !!!

                Your the angel dear Vamsi
                Who acts to my core
                Giving me booster when I fall
                Thanks dear Vamsi
                I shall rest but not rust
                This time I shall not stop on my way

                Very good and very true spilleronsheet but when you reach my age you can look back on your life and realise how well you have done to reach old age and have had a good life.

                  I will surely pay heed to your advice
                  I am always keen to learn more from you sir
                  And I look forward to those days when I can look happily at my past years
                  Thank you so much for your appreciation

                  It’s never easy. Inching forward bit by bit. Yes have a rest then on again. A wonderful message.
