The shout of courage

spilleronsheet

There were words of critics 

Words condemning

words complaining

words glaring

words striking

actions of hate 

figures of zeroes

question of accountability

duty of responsibility

against those the heart lived

against those the tree stood

against those plant sprouted

smiled even though cried inside 

rebelling soul continued 

on journey of thriving 

 

 

then one fine day 

there were words of praise

words of applauds

Action of cheers

season of claps

but why sudden 

the soul felt heavy

the emotions burdening 

to carry on responsibility 

of working through the words of appreciation

the burden of doing better 

it felt overwhelmed

 

then to feel the moment 

the soul calmed

heaved a deep sigh

and exclaimed

shouted at the sky

ohhh Man you survived so far 

 

You truly can do it 

if not you, then who could do it

you vast sky 

I am a star

meant to shine ….

      Generally in Britain, they build you up, and then they knock you down.
      It really does take a thick skin these days to survive in the jungle.

        Thick skins can only live now
